BR ubbel broken D Ring Sweet Iron 14 mm 12,5 Blue / Silver

The Sweet Iron bits are known for the sweet taste of the mouthpiece 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 double jointed D-ring snaffle is made of solid stainless steel rings and a mild steel mouthpiece combined with a sweet iron layer on the mouthpiece (blue). The sweet iron coating on the mouthpiece stimulates saliva production. When this material reacts with moisture, heat and air it will oxidize and develop a sweet tasting surface rust. This aids in the acceptance of the bit. 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. With a double broken bit, the mouthpiece consists of three parts, the middle part of which lies flat on the tongue. This puts more pressure on the tongue than with a single broken mouthpiece. The thicker the middle part, the more pressure on the tongue. The mouthpiece has a thickness of 14 mm and the bit guards have a diameter of 65 mm. A D-bit has D-rings that cannot turn freely, so aids have a more direct effect. This type of bit is generally well accepted because the mouthpiece is relatively firm in the mouth. Due to the D-shape, the rider cannot pull the bit through the mouth and the horse remains easy to steer, making the bit suitable for young horses.
