This bit tape is a new approach to a long-trusted training aid! It’s a discreet and comfortable silicone wrap that helps prevent bit-pinching while creating a gentle feel that horses love. You can use it in many ways, including aiding in bit repair by creating a smooth surface on chewed-up bits, softening the bit for sensitive horses, or as an alternative to bit guards by preventing pinching. It self-adheres and can be cut to your preferred length for multiple uses depending on the application, style of bit, and horse. Includes a resealable plastic bag that keeps out dirt, air, and moisture. Directions for use: Start with a clean and dry workplace then cut your desired length of BitTape. The average horse bit takes approx. 6-12", but this can vary with the application or size of the bit. Gently pre-stretch the BitTape material. Place the starting edge on the front of the bit to avoid creating a bump against the horse's tongue. Overlap it approx. 50% onto itself as your wrap. Once wrapped, squeeze the material firmly to ensure proper adhesion. If you see signs of wear or BitTape begins to loosen, cut it off, discard & re-wrap the bit with new material.
