Description
Sweet Iron bits are known for mouthpieces that have a sweet taste. The bits are anatomically shaped and are available in many types and sizes.
This double-jointed eggbutt snaffle has rings of solid stainless steel and a mouthpiece of mild steel combined with a Sweet Iron layer on the mouthpiece (blue). Saliva production is additionally promoted by the Sweet Iron layer on the mouthpiece. When this material reacts with moisture, warmth and air it oxidises and develops a sweet-tasting surface rust. Eventually the blue colour disappears, but the taste of the surface rust remains. The mouthpiece is 14 mm thick and the bit rings have a diameter of 65 mm.
The anatomical shape follows the form of the horse's mouth, enabling gentle and even pressure distribution. With a double-jointed bit the mouthpiece consists of three parts; the middle part lies flat on the tongue. This creates more pressure on the tongue than with a single-jointed mouthpiece. The thicker the centre piece, the more pressure is exerted on the tongue. There are variants in which the middle piece is fitted with rings, for example, to additionally stimulate chewing. The mouthpiece is 14 mm thick and the bit rings have a diameter of 65 mm.
An eggbutt snaffle has rings that cannot rotate freely. Aids therefore act more directly. This bit type is generally well accepted because the mouthpiece sits relatively firmly in the mouth.
