Frequently asked questions
How is the width of the bit measured?
It is measured from end to end of the mouthpiece in centimeters. The standard size ranges between 10.5 and 14 cm depending on the horse.
What material should I choose?
The common materials (stainless steel, sweet iron, rubber, copper) have different effects on the horse's acceptance. The choice depends on the specific horse.
Single or double jointed?
A single joint creates a nutcracker effect on the tongue; a double joint distributes pressure and is usually better accepted. Each specific model has its own unique action.
