Just some of the popular quality stainless steel horse bits -

Loose Ring Lozenege Bit -

A kind, loose ring lozenge bit with a sweet shaped centre and not too chunky!
This bit is great for schooling a horse, without the nutcracker action.
It discourages the horse to lean on the bit, as the lozenge softens the contact.

Loose Ring Hollow Snaffle -

Another kind mouthed bit, hollow which is significantly lighter than a solid bit!
Loose ring can help if the horse leans on the bit
Nut cracker action

Eggbutt French Snaffle -

This french link eggbutt snaffle is made from stainless steel using the investment cast, lost wax method for the highest quality finish.
The french link snaffle is at the mild end of the bitting spectrum.
The centre plate in a french link eggbutt is shaped and lies flat on the horses tongue causing little pressure when in the horses mouth!
The double jointed mouthpiece eases pressure on the bars of the horses mouth and prevents palate pressure, making the french link one of the best bits for novice horses and riders.

Full Cheek Waterford Bit -

Chain type mouthpiece which has ball shaped links linked together which is completely movable in all directions.
The Waterford mouthpiece has proved one of the most popular bits for bitting problems like leaning, taking hold of the bit.
When the horse tries to lean or take hold of the bit, the waterford mouthpiece collapses, thus the horse has nothing rigid to take hold of.
Super for steering issues with the full cheek sides.

Hanging Cheek Mullen Bit -

The hanging cheek mullen mouth snaffle is similar to the top section of a pelham
Exerting a little poll pressure which can help reluctant horses to break at the poll and flex more readily.
The mullen mouth filet baucher has a curved mouthpiece with no nutcracker action, and can be an ideal bit to use in a dressage test for horses used to being ridden in a pelham!

Show Jump French Link 2 Ring Gag -

This bit can be used with one or two reins, but preferably two.
The first rein would be used on the snaffle ring, which will then just act as a hanging cheek bit, adding a bit of poll and lip pressure.
If the second rein was attached to the ring below, pressure is increased and more leverage is produced.
If only one rein is used, the pressure is applied constantly and there is no pressure release for the horse at all.
Great for eventing, showjumping or during cross country on forward going types this bit produces a head raising action which can help raise the horses head quickly after a jump to be ready for the next!
