Material
This bit is made of high-quality TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane), combining the softness of rubber with the strength and durability needed for daily riding. TPU is known for its exceptional flexibility, durability, and safe properties for horses, making it ideal for horses with sensitive mouths and horses that need more stable contact.
Why TPU?
* Gentle on the mouth – Soft, rubbery feel that promotes relaxation and trust.
* Highly durable – Resistant to wear, tears, and moisture for long-lasting use.
* Safe and non-toxic – TPU is hygienic, easy to clean, and contains no harmful chemicals.
D-ring;
The D-rings are attached to the mouthpiece, keeping the rein contact more directed towards the mouth. D-rings encourage the horse to maintain contact with the bit and create a stable feel for both horse and rider. The D-rings ensure that the bit remains still in the mouth and prevent it from sliding back and forth. The straight sides help with steering and posture.
