The Stübben STEELtec Weymouth Bradoon Bit is made of copper and equipped with smaller side parts as a bradoon for Weymouth bits. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed.

Side Piece

Mouthpiece

double jointed

Double jointed mouthpieces are suitable for many horses. This mouthpiece has two hinges, 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. Caution with narrow lower jaws! The joints can press on the bars with a narrow lower jaw. The double jointed bit exerts more pressure on the tongue compared to single jointed bits. Bradoon

The bradoon is used in combination with a Weymouth bit. 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 bradoon is usually chosen half to one cm larger than the Weymouth bit, as the Weymouth is a solid bar and the bradoon is jointed.

Bit Material

Copper

Copper has several positive properties. Firstly, it has an antibacterial effect, and secondly, it tastes sweet when oxidized. This stimulates salivation in horses, which encourages them to chew more and generally accept the bit better.
