Description

The Sprenger Turnado 3 Ring Bit 16mm is a single-jointed 3 ring snaffle designed to address an inherent problem with standard single-jointed bits. By angling the joint forward by 45 degrees, the Turnado ensures equal contact on both sides of the tongue, avoiding the uneven pressure distribution common to conventionally manufactured single-jointed mouthpieces. Available in sizes 115mm to 145mm.

  • The innovative joint of the mouthpiece is turned forward by 45°
  • The contact surface of the mouthpiece on the tongue is equal on both sides
  • Enables an even distribution of pressure on both tongue edges
  • Offers increased control for strong horses
  • Leverage effect can be modified by different rein options
  • The unique angle is distinctly marked by a slightly abrasive surface (sandblasting) in the middle part of the mouthpiece

Frequently Asked Questions
What problem does the Turnado's 45° angled joint solve compared to a standard single-jointed bit?
In standard single-jointed bits, a production-related characteristic means one part of the mouthpiece is longer than the other, resulting in stronger influence on one tongue edge. The Turnado's joint is angled forward by 45 degrees so that the contact surface is equal on both sides of the tongue, ensuring even pressure distribution.
How is the 45° angle on the Turnado mouthpiece identified?
The unique angle is distinctly marked by a slightly abrasive surface created by sandblasting in the middle part of the mouthpiece, making it easy to identify the correct orientation.
Can the leverage effect of the Sprenger Turnado 3 Ring Bit be adjusted?
Yes. As a 3 ring bit, the leverage effect can be modified by attaching the reins to different rings, giving the rider options to suit the horse's level of training and sensitivity.
What sizes does the Sprenger Turnado 3 Ring Bit 16mm come in?
The bit is available in four sizes: 115mm, 125mm, 135mm, and 145mm.
What materials is the Sprenger Turnado 3 Ring Bit available in?
The bit is available in Stainless Steel and Sensogan. Sensogan is Sprenger's own alloy material used across their bit range.
