Our expert's opinion
The tandem bit is a light lever bit that provides control and tension on the bit.Its sweet iron alloy promotes chewing and salivation in the horse, which helps it to relax. The tandem bit is a combination of a hackamore and a bit. It acts on the nose and the jaw via the curb chain. This bit must be used with great precision and allows horses with a lot of strength and energy to be controlled. The curb chain allows the leverage of the bit to be adjusted more precisely; the tighter it is, the stronger its action. It distributes the pressure on the jaw. It is recommended to use curb chain guards for sensitive horses.
Material
Sweet iron : Sweet iron alloy oxidizes when in contact with the humidity of the mouth and the air. The oxidation brings a sweet taste which 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. Consequently, this alloy allows a good acceptance of the bit and helps the horse to get in touch with its mouthpiece. The oxydation modifies the aspect of the bit during the sessions.
