BR Equestrian Equipment Sweet Iron

This double-jointed snaffle bit features solid stainless steel rings and a mouthpiece made of sweet iron with a blue coating. The sweet iron coating on the mouthpiece stimulates saliva production. When this material reacts with moisture, heat, and air in an oxidation process, the surface rust has a sweet taste. This enhances the acceptance of the bit. Eventually, the blue color fades, but the taste of the surface rust remains.

The anatomical design conforms to the shape of the horse's mouth, creating a gentle and even distribution of pressure. In a double-jointed snaffle, the bit consists of three parts, with the middle section lying flat on the tongue. This results in more pressure on the tongue compared to a single-jointed bit. The thicker the middle piece, the greater the pressure on the tongue. The thickness of the mouthpiece is 14 mm, and the diameter of the ring bit is 65 mm.

A ring bit is a bit with separate bit rings. This type of bit is generally well accepted, as the mouthpiece sits relatively loosely in the mouth.
