BR Equitation Olive bit for horses BR Equitation

This double-cut olive bit features solid stainless steel washers and a soft iron mouthpiece with a (blue) sweet iron coating. The soft iron coating on the mouthpiece stimulates salivation. When this material reacts with moisture, heat and air in an oxidation process, the surface rust tastes sweet. This promotes acceptance of the bit. The anatomical design follows the shape of the horse's mouth, creating a smooth, even pressure distribution. With a canon double break, the bit consists of three parts, the middle of which lies flat on the tongue. This creates more pressure on the tongue than with a canon. The thicker the central part, the greater the pressure on the tongue. There are also variants where the central part is fitted with rings, for example, to stimulate chewing. canon thickness 14 mm. Rings 65 mm An olive bit has rings that cannot rotate freely, so the aids have a more direct action. This type of bit is generally well accepted, as the canon is relatively fixed in the mouth.
