The smooth, hand polished stainless steel is coated with a blue alloy material that is designed to “rust”, thereby improving bit acceptance. This bit also improves mouth moisture due the inclusion of a brass lozenge link in the middle. With its round, lozenge center, this bit minimizes the nutcracker effect and helping to improve communication with you and your horse. Fixed eggbutt cheeks help to imprvove bit stability in the mouth. Suitable for use with young horses and finished show horses alike.
