Most of our steel bits are hollow inside. This construction makes them lighter and more comfortable for horses to use. If a specific bit has a different construction (e.g. solid inside), this information will be included in the product description. It is always worth reading the description before purchasing to be sure of the specifications of the model.
Stainless steel bits are manufactured from high-quality steel, which is characterized by corrosion resistance and durability. The process begins with forming the steel into the appropriate shapes, which includes cutting, bending and welding the parts. The bits are then subjected to surface treatments, such as polishing, to enhance their aesthetics and functionality. Each bit undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure safety and comfort for horses.
To extend the life of your stainless steel bit, clean it regularly. After each use, rinse it with water to remove any food or saliva residue. You can use a soft sponge or cloth to clean it, and if necessary, a mild metal cleaner. In addition, protect the bit from mechanical damage, such as impacts or falls, which can cause scratches or deformation.
Yes, stainless steel bits are resistant to rust and corrosion due to the properties of the material. Stainless steel contains chromium, which forms a thin layer of chromium oxide on the surface of the metal, protecting it from moisture and other atmospheric agents. Although stainless steel is much more resistant to rust than traditional carbon steel, it is still important to clean and maintain it regularly to ensure long-term protection.
Yes, of course. We accept returns of stainless steel bits in our shop, provided that the product has not been used. You have the option to return the bit within 30 days of purchase. If the bit does not meet your expectations or you simply changed your mind, you can send it back according to our returns policy.
