Stübben STEELtec Pony Loose Ring Snaffle 11 mm 12 cm

Stübben STEELtec Pony Fulmer Snaffle 11 mm | 12 cm | 12 cm

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 11 millimeters at its thickest point. This makes it a rather thin mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold-bloods and Shire Horses usually need a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

When selecting the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Stübben STEELtec bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the best materials. We would like to introduce you to the Stübben STEELtec Pony Fulmer Snaffle 11 mm | 12 cm | 12 cm from the Stübben STEELtec range in more detail today:
