Korsteel's Soft Rubber Jointed Eggbutt Snaffle Bit is a more gentle alternative to a traditional, thinner stainless steel bit as the thicker mouthpiece is softer on the corners and the bars of the mouth. The pressure is spread over a larger surface area and encourages your horse to chew and salivate.The single joint creates pressure on the tongue, the roof and the bars of the mouth. The Eggbutt cheeks ensure the bit sits quieter in your horse's mouth, so this bit is more suited to young horses or those who struggle to maintain a consistent contact. Size Guide Available in 5" or 5.5".
