Stübben Steeltec Loose Ring Bit, Sweet Copper, Double Broken, Bit

Description

Stübben Steeltec Sweet Copper Loose Ring Bit Double Broken

• the loose ring bit is a classic, soft-acting double-broken bit with a mouthpiece made of sweet copper, which ensures more comfort, acceptance and natural chewing behavior
• the freely movable rings allow the horse to position the bit independently and thus find a soft contact
• any bit can cause pain if it is used roughly or improperly
• the wrong size can also be painful for the horse

Material

• mouthpiece: 90 % sweet copper, 7 % zinc, 4 % iron and aluminum (hardened)
• rings: stainless steel
• ring diameter: 70 mm
• mouthpiece: double broken

Care instructions

• clean saliva residue under running water after every ride
• dry with a towel

Size guide

• an already well-fitting bit can be used as a reference for choosing the size
• alternatively, the width of the horse’s mouth can be measured, e.g. with a bit ruler or a soft string
• the measurement is taken at the point in the mouth where the bit will later be positioned
• the ends are marked and then the distance is measured
• the bit width should be chosen so that the rings are just outside or slightly above the corners of the mouth
• a bit that is too narrow can exert pressure
• a bit that is too wide can move back and forth sideways
• in the case of bits with freely movable rings, there should be approx. 1 cm clearance on one side so that the rings can turn freely without pinching the lips
