Rainbow Bits – Unique, Colorful Bits for Sensitive Horses

Rainbow bits combine modern technology, exceptional design, and practical functionality – perfect for even the most sensitive horses. Their striking rainbow finish is created using a PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating process, making each bit a true one-of-a-kind piece – visually stunning and completely safe to use.

What Makes Rainbow Bits Special?

• Colorful rainbow finish – achieved without paints or dyes. The color results from a natural reaction of titanium applied to stainless steel at high temperatures.
• PVD technology – extremely durable, abrasion-resistant coloring that does not affect the material's properties.
• Every bit is unique – the color pattern varies depending on the positioning of the piece during the coating process.
• Hypoallergenic – safe for horses with sensitive skin or allergic tendencies.

Thanks to their aesthetic appeal and natural properties, Rainbow bits are perfect for competitions, training sessions, or photo shoots – anywhere style and functionality are equally important.

How Is the Rainbow Effect Created?

The rainbow effect is not painted on, but created through a chemical process:

• Titanium is applied to stainless steel using the PVD method,
• Under high heat and electric current, a permanent, decorative, and safe coating is formed,
• Each bit receives a unique spectrum of colors – ranging from blues and greens to purples, golds, and pinks.

On bits with rotating rings, small, uncolored areas may appear at contact points – a natural result of the PVD process and a mark of authenticity.
