Stubben 2464 Single Jointed Silver Wings Bit - 5"

The Silver Wings bits offer special protection for the corners of the mouth with their characteristic side bit plates, preventing the sensitive skin from being pinched by the sliding rings. The sliding rings ensure that the anatomical mouthpiece always returns to a neutral position and rests gently in the horse's mouth. At the same time, the bit plates provide lateral guidance and stabilize the position of the bit in the horse's mouth, offering slight lateral influence that can particularly support young horses in bending and turns. The Silver Wings single jointed bridle primarily distributes pressure evenly over the bars, with the central joint relieving pressure on the tongue. The loose rings ensure the bit always finds a neutral position in the horse's mouth. Advantages at a Glance Mouth Friendliness and Comfort The side plates of the bit prevent painful pinching of the corners of the mouth and ensure a stable position in the horse's mouth. The bit plates allow for gentle lateral influence on the horse's mouth and can aid in bending and turning. Pressure Distribution The single jointed mouthpiece sits more steadily in the mouth than a double jointed mouthpiece and distributes the pressure over the bars of the horse's mouth, while the central joint reduces pressure on the tongue. The loose rings allow the horse to move the bit independently in its mouth, bringing the mouthpiece to a neutral position. Stainless Steel Mouthpiece Made from stainless steel, the bit is robust, tasteless, and odorless. For Which Horses is This Bit Especially Suitable? For sensitive horses For horses still in training For horses with strong mouth activity For horses that require slight lateral stability Note on Proper Use Any bit can cause pain if used roughly or improperly, and this is especially true for bits with leverage effects. The wrong size can also be painful for the horse. Dimensions: Width: 11.5 cm Ring Diameter: 65 mm Thickness: 14 mm Width: 12.5 / 13.5 cm Ring Diameter: 70 mm Thickness: 14 mm
