Expert opinion : The Zilco straight half needle bit provides comfort in the horse's mouth by distributing the pressure points. It acts globally on the tongue and bars. It is recommended for horses with a sensitive palate or a flat palate. The straight bit allows the rider to obtain a symmetrical action. Its straight barrel encourages the horse to come to rest on the bit. It is recommended for horses that tend to shy away from contact, dig their backs in, but also for horses with a sensitive palate or flat palate. The barrel is shaped to prevent the horse from connecting with the bit. The resin of this bit is rigid. Sometimes called a "half-jowl snaffle", this design is popular in harness racing. The spoons hang below the mouthpiece to prevent the bit from being pulled by the horse's mouth and their position means they are less likely to get caught in the mouth or reins.

Soft resin : This alloy offers a softer contact that encourages relaxation. Resin bits remain at room temperature. They offer a soft contact but are less soft and thick than a rubber jaw.

Caution : This material is vulnerable and is not guaranteed by the manufacturer against wear and tear due to biting. We strongly advise against using a bit that is too damaged, as this could injure the horse's bars, tongue and palate.
