Key Features

Non-ToxicNon-Toxic
Bits that are made from non-toxic materials, unlike most plastics, rubbers, and metals, are a safer option for horses who need a gentler bit.
-
Increased PalatabilityIncreased Palatability
Bits that increase palatability often incorporate sweet metals (such as copper and iron) or flavored plastics which encourage the horse to salivate, relax their jaw, and accept the bit. They may be inlaid into the bars, be the roller or lozenge, or make up the entire bar.
-
Leverage PressureLeverage Pressure
These bits use indirect pressure that multiplies the amount of force exerted on the horse's mouth, nose, or poll. They are used by riders who have little to no contact or are looking for more finesse and control.
-
Direct PressureDirect Pressure
Bits that use direct pressure have a 1:1 ratio where the pressure exerted on the reins will be the same pressure felt in the mouth. They are used by riders who often have contact with their horse's mouth.
The Centaur King Dee Ring Broken Segunda Snaffle Bit is a practical option for experienced riders with light contact. The traditional stainless steel D-ring cheek pieces offer a conventional appeal for the show ring.
Due to the sharper edges of the double-jointed ported center link, this bit can deliver moderate to severe tongue pressure when the reins are engaged and should be used by seasoned riders with light contact. When used correctly, this style mouthpiece can encourage lightness in and softness in response to rein action.
