Verbindend Universal

The unique Salox® Gold possesses a high thermal conductivity. This means that the bit will warm to mouth temperature quickly and become ‘neutral’ to the horse, meaning that they are less likely to inwardly fixate on the mouthpiece and instead will be receptive to all the rider’s aids.

Occasionally, the horse’s bit may come into contact with the teeth- namely the incisors (as we put the bit in) and the premolars. In this case, care must be taken to ensure that there is no discomfort or damage to the tooth itself. Salox® Gold differs from standard stainless steel and other copper alloy bits in that it is a slightly softer metal, allowing it to safely absorb impact forces whilst protecting tooth enamel. This can make the mouthpiece easier to accept by the horse. 

Neue Schule aims to keep the bit comfortable but neutral in the horse’s mouth. The horse should not inwardly fixate on the bit, but instead be receptive to all our aids. The addition of aluminium which forms a protective insoluble alumina coating solves the issue. It is also self-healing – if the horse bites into the bit the insoluble surface oxide quickly re-forms to re-trap the ions. 

Brilliant for faster work offering varying degrees of control with a curb strap option. This versatile all-rounder offers extra control and lift from the shoulder without discomfort or severity, allowing your horse to soften and relax through the jaw. Our Universal cheeks are a very popular rider’s choice for faster work as they offer extra control and enhanced turning. This also means the Verbindend Universal is highly recommended for flat work/training in order to lighten the forehand, thus developing throughness and establishing self carriage.

• Sourced for extra control during faster work.
• A popular tool for flatwork training, often used with two reins and a curb strap.
• A versatile all-rounder that offers varying degrees of control and greater lift through the shoulder without discomfort or severity.
