Fulmer Snaffle Bit

Helps keep the bit ‘straight' in the horses mouth and helps avoid pinching of the cheeks. Korsteel bits are made from the finest 18/8 stainless steel, and are proven and tested to our exacting standards. With a high quality finish, they provide the best possible connection between horse and rider, whether at the top level of competition or as a novice pleasure rider. Loose ring bits are the most basic and popular style of bits. The loose ring encourages the horse to play with and accept the bit. The nutcracker action of a jointed bit has a 'lifting' effect, whilst a straight bit provides stability. The thickness of a bit determines its severity- the thicker the mouthpiece the kinder the bit. Rubber covered bits are particularly suitable for sensitive horses. French, roller and Dr Bristols all encourage chewing and salivation, which in turn help the horse accept the bit in a relaxed manner. The inclusion of a port on some bits aids flexion.
