Description
The Lorina Hollow Mouth Eggbutt Snaffle is a lightweight snaffle bit with a thicker, hollow mouthpiece, available in four sizes from 4.5 inch (114mm) to 6 inch (152mm). The hollow construction creates a thicker mouthpiece that is well suited to sensitive horses with average tongues, while the eggbutt rings provide stable, fixed cheek pieces.
- Works on the roof of the mouth and bars, although less than a standard eggbutt because of the extra thickness, due to the nutcracker action
- Can sometimes help prevent the horse from getting its tongue over the bit due to the high nature of the bit mouthpiece in the horse's mouth when in use
- Thicker, lightweight mouthpiece is good for sensitive horses with average tongues
Colour: One Colour
Sizes available: 4.5 Inch (114mm), 5 Inch (127mm), 5.5 Inch (140mm), 6 Inch (152mm)

Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes does the Lorina Hollow Mouth Eggbutt Snaffle come in?
It is available in four sizes: 4.5 Inch (114mm), 5 Inch (127mm), 5.5 Inch (140mm), and 6 Inch (152mm).
Why is the Lorina Hollow Mouth Eggbutt described as lighter than a solid mouthpiece bit?
The mouthpiece is hollow, which reduces its overall weight while still producing a thicker profile - making it a consideration for sensitive horses with average tongues.
How does the hollow mouthpiece affect pressure compared to a standard eggbutt snaffle?
Because the hollow mouthpiece is thicker, it works on the roof of the mouth and bars less than a standard eggbutt snaffle, despite the nutcracker action present in this design.
Can this bit help with a horse that puts its tongue over the bit?
The product description notes that the high nature of the bit mouthpiece in the horse's mouth when in use can sometimes help prevent the horse from getting its tongue over the bit, though results will vary between individual horses.
