Ported Barrel Loose Ring

Stainless steel, laiton & Sweet iron: Bombers only uses the very best Stainless Steel. Brass is used in a some products. Most our mouthpieces are made from blue sweet iron, because it:

• Oxidises easily
• Encourages salivation
• Helps bit acceptance
• Is warm and sweet

Our bits should be washed after use and checked for wear. If the bit has been out of use for some time, a kitchen scourer maybe necessary to remove built up oxidation.

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. Please note, this bit exerts sharper tongue pressure than the Eliptical due to the Barrel being smaller. 

The port creates relief for the tongue while the barrel joint relieves pinch on the bars, while still allowing for individual lateral aids. Bomber's development which offers tongue relief, recommended for those horses that do not settle with the happy tongue
