Shipping costs calculated at checkout.
The single-jointed eggbutt snaffle in its horse version: solid stainless steel, 16 mm mouthpiece, 55 mm rings. On an eggbutt bit, the rings do not rotate freely, so the aids have a more direct action than with a loose-ring bit. This type of bit is generally well accepted because the mouthpiece remains relatively stable in the horse’s mouth.

🐎 Why choose this product?
At 16 mm, the mouthpiece distributes pressure over a larger surface area and is less noticeable. However, the horse must have enough room for it: on a horse with a thick tongue, a wide mouthpiece may cause more discomfort than relief.
🧴 Usage tips
Measure the width from one ring to the other, with the mouthpiece stretched out. ⚠️ A bit that is too narrow pinches the corners of the mouth; one that is too wide moves around in the mouth and knocks against the teeth. Allow approximately half a centimetre of mouthpiece to be visible on each side.
