Stübben Steeltec Loose Ring Bit Quick Contact Double Broken

• the quick contact loose ring bit (double broken) was developed for a faster reaction to the aids of a single rein
• the freely movable rings allow the bit to move freely and ensure a neutral position in the horse's mouth, while the sweet copper mouthpiece promotes acceptance, salivation and active chewing
• any bit can cause pain if used roughly or improperly
• the wrong size can also be painful for the horse

• rings: stainless steel
• bit thickness: 16 mm
• ring size: 70 mm

Care instructions

• clean saliva residue under running water after every ride

Size guide

• an already well-fitting bit can be used as a reference for the size selection
• alternatively, the width of the horse's mouth can be measured (e.g. with a bit ruler or soft string)
• the string or ruler is placed at the point in the mouth where the bit will later be positioned
• the ends are marked and the distance is then measured
• the width of the bit should be chosen so that the rings are just outside or slightly above the corners of the mouth
• a bit that is too narrow can cause pressure points
• a bit that is too wide can move sideways and slip
• in the case of bits with freely movable rings, there should be approx. 1 cm clearance on one side so that the rings can turn freely without pinching the lips
