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 Dee Ring Twisted Wire Bit from Reinsman offers a medium twist with direct rein pressure for clear and consistent communication. The three-piece construction with twisted wire on either side of a dogbone is designed to break over the bars at a unique angle, creating more defined contact when engaged. The dogbone applies tongue pressure to encourage proper head carriage. This bit is a great option for greener horses who require a bit more guidance or seasoned horses in need of a tune-up.
