Frequently Asked Questions
How does the two ring cheek design affect pressure distribution?
The two ring cheeks allow for adjustable poll pressure and apply leverage on the mouthpiece. Pressure is dispersed across both the tongue and bars of the mouth, rather than concentrated in one area.
Why is this bit made from Sweet Iron and what happens to the blue colour over time?
Sweet Iron is used because it oxidises easily, creating a warm taste that encourages bit acceptance and promotes salivation. The distinctive blue colour is a result of this material and will gradually fade with regular use - this is normal and expected.
What role do the Brass Alloy inserts play in this bit?
The Brass Alloy inserts are included to contribute an additional warm, more palatable taste, further encouraging the horse to accept the bit comfortably.
What is the lozenge element in this bit and how does it affect the horse's mouth?
The lozenge is a link in the mouthpiece that helps distribute pressure across the tongue and bars of the mouth, supporting mouthing and contact for a more comfortable fit.
