STUEBBEN Icelandic Snaffle double broken

A double-jointed water bit is a widely used and common bit in equestrian sports. The effect of this bit is relatively mild. The water bit features round rings at the ends of the mouthpiece, which can slide freely through the mouthpiece. These rings provide some flexibility and help distribute pressure evenly. The round rings allow the horse to move the bit independently within its mouth.

The double-jointed water bit is considered a gentle bit, making it well-suited for young or sensitive horses. The double-jointed mouthpiece with tongue relief follows the natural shape of the horse’s mouth and features a flat central piece. This design distributes pressure more evenly over the bars and relieves pressure on the tongue. The continuous rings ensure the bit always finds a neutral position in the horse’s mouth. The stainless steel mouthpiece is completely odorless and tasteless, making it suitable for sensitive horses. The sweet-tasting copper central piece can stimulate increased chewing activity.
