BR Loose Ring Snaffle Sweet Iron Single Broken 14mm

BR single jointed loose ring snaffle Sweet Iron 14 mm The Sweet Iron bits are known for the sweet taste of the mouthpiece. In addition, the bits are anatomically shaped and available in many shapes and sizes.

This single jointed loose ring snaffle is made of solid stainless steel combined with a sweet iron layer on the mouthpiece (blue). The sweet iron coating on the mouthpiece stimulates the production of saliva. When this material reacts with moisture, heat and air, it will oxidize and develop a sweet tasting surface rust. This aids in bit acceptance. Eventually the blue color disappears, but the taste of the surface rust remains.

The anatomical design follows the shape of the horse's mouth, creating a soft and even pressure distribution. The mouthpiece of a single broken snaffle hinges at one point. It acts on the tongue, layers, corners of the mouth and sometimes on the palate of the horse. If a rein aid is given, the bit takes on a V shape. Because this mouthpiece has only one hinge point, the tongue is freer than, for example, a double broken bit. The nozzle has a thickness of 14 mm and the bit rings have a diameter of 65 mm.

A loose ring is a bit with loose bit rings. This type of bit is generally well accepted because the mouthpiece is relatively loose in the mouth.
