Cheekpiece
Gag bits
A gag bit can be ridden with two reins. The second rein, when more pressure is applied, causes the bit to tilt and pull up in the corner of the mouth. This results in increased action. Very good for horses that tend to lean on the bit. Also suitable for horses to achieve more uplift.
Mouthpiece
Single jointed
The single-jointed mouthpiece has a hinge in the middle, which puts less pressure on the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. The single-jointed mouthpiece is certainly the most common of all mouthpieces, alongside the double-jointed one.
Bit Material
Stainless Steel
The most common material for bits is stainless steel. Stainless steel comes in different compositions and consists of steel and various metals. Steel, in turn, is iron that has been alloyed with carbon.
To obtain stainless steel, the steel is mixed with various metals to form different alloys. The most commonly used alloy for stainless steel bits consists of steel, chromium, and nickel.
