Description
FG Brushed Stainless Steel Low Port Hinged Futurity Bit. Horse bits by François Gauthier Collection made of brushed stainless steel. 5" (12,5 cm) curved mouthpiece with hinged low port made of sweet iron and copper barrel roller. Short shank of 6-1/2" (165 mm) with swivel cheeks with silver coloured trim and dots.
Excellent transition bit, the next step after a snaffle. Good for teaching basic maneuvers to the young horse.
Sweet iron will rust when it comes into contact with (air) humidity; the surface rust tastes sweet and naturally stimulates the saliva production. This will cause the horse to salivate more which in turn encourages better acceptance of the bit. The rusting process (oxidation) changes the colour of the bit to a brownish-grey.
