Loose Ring Double-Jointed Black Steel Bit with Copper Link Balotade\u00ae<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Gentle yet effective action \u2014 ideal for young horses and sensitive mounts. The double-jointed model from the Balotade\u00ae Black Steel<\/strong> collection is a solid bit that, thanks to its weight, sits stably in the horse’s mouth, ensuring confident contact and comfort.<\/p>\n

Double Joint and Copper Link \u2014 Greater Sensitivity<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • The two joints reduce pressure on the palate and ensure even action,<\/li>\n
  • The copper link further increases bit acceptance, acting in a soothing and encouraging way \u2014 especially with young horses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    This combination makes the bit work subtly and effectively \u2014 without sharp aids.<\/p>\n

    Properties of Black Steel \u2014 Natural Stimulation<\/h2>\n

    The mouthpiece is made of hand-polished black steel with a sweet taste<\/strong>, which:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • naturally stimulates salivation<\/strong>, improving the comfort of carrying the bit,<\/li>\n
    • during the oxidation process changes colour from black to brown \u2014 creating a delicate, safe rust patina with a sweet flavour,<\/li>\n
    • retains full functionality regardless of the changing appearance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      This phenomenon is harmless \u2014 most horses chew more willingly and respond better to aids<\/strong>, which translates into better communication with the rider.<\/p>\n

      Solid Construction<\/h2>\n
        \n
      • Stainless steel rings \u2014 corrosion-resistant, durable and safe,<\/li>\n
      • Mouthpiece thickness:<\/strong> 18 mm,<\/li>\n
      • Ring diameter:<\/strong>\n
          \n
        • 65 mm (sizes: 14.5 cm \/ 13.5 cm \/ 12.5 cm),<\/li>\n
        • 55 mm (sizes: 11.5 cm \/ 10.5 cm).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
