Eggbutt blue steel gag bit

The Blue Steel alloy of this Jump'In bit collection is 54% carbon and 46% manganese. Blue Steel oxidizes when in contact of air and humidity creating a thin layer of rust which has a sweet taste that will naturally stimulate the production of saliva. By salivating more, horses will take the bit more. With this oxidizing process, the bit color will turn into a greyish brown.

The gag bit works on the balance of the horse. It helps the rider make the horse work on his hind-end. It's a great tool to divide the points of pressure on the mouth and the poll. This type of bit can be used by amateurs and experts. You will see them often in the show ring. It needs specific cheek parts. It can also be used with only one pair of reins, or with bit connectors, or with 2 pairs of reins. It's a good channelising bit thanks to the eggbutt cheek side pieces. It also reassures the horse on the contact. 

Clean with water after each use and occasionally with a special cleaning product for bits.
