BUSSE Eggbutt Snaffle Bit KAUGAN-SHAPED 14 mm, French Link – balanced contact for a relaxed ride

The BUSSE Eggbutt Snaffle Bit KAUGAN-SHAPED 14 mm, French Link is a classic snaffle bit for riders who want gentle yet clear communication with their horse. The anatomically shaped mouthpiece with an elliptical French link distributes pressure evenly across the tongue and bars, while the fixed, oval eggbutt rings prevent the bit from pulling through the mouth.

Thanks to the mouthpiece made from KAUGAN – a nickel-free metal alloy with a high copper content – your horse's chewing activity is encouraged and acceptance of the bit is improved without losing effectiveness. The solid construction keeps the bit lying quietly in the mouth, and every connecting link is precisely matched to the bit size and thickness. This makes it a reliable choice for daily schooling or hacking out.

Warning/safety information

Warning/safety instructions for bits

A bit should have the correct width for the horse's mouth, which is measured on the horse in advance. The BUSSE bit width gauge is suitable for this.

The choice of the right type of bit is individual and depends on many factors - such as the horse's level of training, its mouth shape and sensitivity, and the rider's hand. Therefore, it makes sense to try out dentures.

When strapping in the bit, make sure that it is strapped in correctly: the BUSSE logo is on the left side of the horse's head, with the hollow side of the bit pointing towards the throat and the other side towards the mouth outlet . (If the bit is correctly positioned in front of you, you can read the size label on the right shank the right way up - it is not upside down.)

It is important that the bit fits correctly into the bit straps of the bridle or curb is buckled. When buckled correctly using the bit straps, approx. 2-3 small wrinkles will form at the corners of the mouth.

The bit should be checked regularly for signs of wear, such as sharp edges, and replaced if necessary. Please only use the bit if it is in an appropriate condition that does not harm the horse's well-being.
