Integrated bit guards help prevent the lips from touching metal, so the horse only makes contact with the soft material. The ultra-supple, flexible mouthpiece encourages chewing, relaxation, and a steady contact.The outer layer is made from a soft synthetic compound, free from toxins and designed for safe, daily use. Its smooth finish protects delicate oral tissue while the inner flex core gives just enough movement to adapt with the horse’s mouth. Horses that dislike rigid or metal bits often respond with greater relaxation and salivation to this material.The flexible, straight bar mouthpiece softly follows the natural shape of the horse’s mouth and avoids the nutcracker effect of jointed bits. Because it’s so flexible, it cushions rein aids and smooths out pressure, making it easier for sensitive horses to stretch forward and down into a comfortable contact. With a 20 mm thickness for broad pressure distribution, it’s especially gentle on delicate tongues and bars.With Eggbutt rings, the mouthpiece remains more stable in the horse’s mouth, preventing excessive lateral movement. This steadiness supports horses who appreciate a quieter bit, helping them stay confident in the contact.
