Poponcini Loose Ring

Product description

Characteristics Poponcini Bits

• Poponcini bits are characterized by having an extremely soft mouthpiece and guarantee optimal comfort for the sensitive horse's mouth.
• The shape of the mouthpiece allows a horse to close its mouth properly, which means that it will relax more quickly and be much calmer with its head and tongue.
• A Poponcini bit is formed in Italy by a metal wire, covered with plastic, and a brass bush at the ends. A non-toxic, anti-allergic silicone layer is poured over this.
• Poponcini bits made of this soft material are also called the HARMONY line.

Bits made of this type of soft material have a shorter life than bits from metal.

PLEASE NOTE: Because Poponcini bits are so soft, we can NOT give any WARRANTY on these bits!

Loose Ring:

• A loose ring snaffle is a basic bit with loose movable bit rings and is therefore quite loose in the mouth.
• Depending on the type, thickness and material, a loose ring snaffle gets a sharper or softer effect.
• It is important that the loose ring is not too narrow, otherwise a skin from the corners of the mouth can get in between.
  If your horse does have problems with this, you can use rubber bit rings if necessary.
• A loose ring snaffle is a good basic bit, suitable for many horses and riders.

Straight mouthpiece features:

• A straight mouthpiece consists of 1 piece and gives pressure on the tongue, layers and lips.
• The shape and thickness of the mouthpiece determine where the pressure will be in the mouth.
• A straight mouthpiece with a tongue port gives more pressure on the layers and keeps the tongue free.
• The straighter and thicker the mouthpiece, the more pressure on the tongue.
