Why choose a bevel bit for your horse?
The Bevel bit is a modified loose ring snaffle that allows the rider to apply an intermediate degree of leverage and can also help to promote a correct outline. The single jointed, durable rubber mouth piece offers a higher level of comfort in the horse‘s mouth whilst still applying pressure to the bars, lips and sides of the tongue. Similar to a three ring/Dutch gag but with less leverage, making it an ideal bit for horses who require more braking power than a regular snaffle. The rubber mouthpiece makes the bit warmer and therefore more easily accepted by sensitive horses.
Measurements
As per our size guide the A & B measurements of this bit are as follows:
4.5" & 5" - A=15mm & B=55mm
5.5" - A=15mm & B=65mm
Rubber Horse Bits
Rubber covered bits generally have thicker mouthpieces making them softer and ideal for horses with sensitive mouths or those who do not like metal bits. Our rubber bits have been heat treated to make them smooth to the touch and more durable. May not be suitable for horses with small mouths or a large tongue due to the thicker mouthpiece.
