7-1/2'' Cheek Floating Spade:
- Mouthpiece is 12,5 cm with copper inlays.
- This bit has a 2-1/2'' purchase with a 5'' shank.This cheek style can be used for training or competition.
When properly adjused it is still a mild cheek, but has plenty of control increased speeds. The stainless steel cheek with a copper inlaid floating spade mouthpiece that wraps over the tongue with pressure. This is a great bit to introduce a horse to palate pressure as you transition to ported bits.
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.
A beginning of this oxidation process may already be visible when purchasing a new bit.
