Sidepiece

Mouthpiece

double jointed

The double-jointed mouthpiece is one of the most common mouthpieces on the market. This mouthpiece has two joints, is more shaped towards the mouth and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth. This bit exerts pressure on the tongue, the bars and the corners of the mouth. This bit should not be used with narrow lower jaws. The joints can press on the bars if the lower jaw is narrow. Compared to a single-jointed bit, this bit exerts more pressure on the tongue. Weymouth Snaffle Bit

The Weymouth snaffle bit is used in combination with a Weymouth bridle. It is available in single and double jointed mouthpiece variations. The difference to other snaffles lies in the rings (e.g. eggbutt rings), which are significantly smaller than the rings of normal bits. The Weymouth snaffle is usually chosen half to a full centimeter larger than the Weymouth bit, as the Weymouth bit is a straight bar and the Weymouth snaffle is jointed.

Bit Material

Sensogan Copper, manganese and zinc are the components of Sprenger's Sensogan alloy. The trace element manganese has a positive effect on the horse's metabolism and stress reduction. The combination of copper and manganese leads to a dosed oxidation process that promotes chewing activity. Sprenger's Sensogan bits are characterized by high compatibility.
