Expert opinion : The Barrel joint limits the nut cracker action, which spreads the pressure over a larger area of the tongue and lessens the pressure on the bars. The barrel allows for independent action on each rein. A ring cheek piece introduces poll pressure as well as creating leverage on the mouthpiece, the 2½ Ring version is the softest out of the 3 or 4 ring alternatives as the ½ ring softens the leverage on the mouthpiece and poll. The central barrel allows for a separation of reins aids, enabling a fine tuning of communication.
The limited movement of the barrel allows the port to adjust to fit a wide range of mouth configurations. The adjustable port allows the horse to maneuver pressures between its tongue & bars. The barrel mouthpiece will twist if the horse takes too much pressure. This will help the horse stay relaxed on the bit and the rider to keep a good contact.
BARREL THICKNESS
*Unless mentioned in the options, the thickness of the barrel is :
| Size (mm) | Barrel thickness (mm) |
| < 115 | 12 |
| 115 - 130 | 14 |
| > 130 | 16 |
Please note : This bit is small, we advise you to take 1 size above.
Sweet Iron : Sweet Iron alloy oxidizes upon contact with moisture in the mouth and air. The oxidation brings a sweet taste that naturally stimulates the production of saliva. This corresponds to the effect of a sugar that is given to the horse at the beginning of the session but allows to diffuse this sweet taste throughout the work. Therefore, this alloy allows a good acceptance of the bit and helps the horse to make contact with the mouthpiece. The oxydation modifies the aspect of the bit during the sessions.
