Stable Position and Gentle Action: The Waldhausen Eggbutt Snaffle, double jointed

The Waldhausen Eggbutt Snaffle, double jointed is a first-class choice for riders looking for a stable connection and a particularly mouth-friendly effect. Thanks to the fixed eggbutt shape of the side pieces, your horse benefits from an incredibly quiet position of the bit in the mouth. Since the rings do not run loosely through the mouthpiece, unpleasant pinching of the sensitive corners of the mouth is reliably prevented. In addition, the fixed side pieces offer a gentle lateral limit, which makes turning noticeably easier.

The double-jointed mouthpiece adapts perfectly to the natural anatomy of the horse's tongue. When the reins are pulled, the pressure is distributed evenly over the tongue and the bars without creating uncomfortable pressure on the sensitive roof of the mouth. Made from proven stainless steel, the bit proves to be extremely durable, easy to care for, and completely rust-free in daily training. The smooth surface is completely without any taste of its own and has only a minimal effect on your horse's natural saliva production – ideal for horses that prefer a neutral, honest contact. The bit thickness is optimally adapted to the respective size: up to a bit width of 12.5 cm it is 14 mm, from a width of 13.5 cm it is 16 mm.

Questions & Answers:

What is the difference between an eggbutt snaffle and a regular loose ring snaffle?
With a classic loose ring snaffle, the rings run loosely through the mouthpiece, which can cause skin folds on the lips to get pinched. With the Waldhausen Eggbutt Snaffle, double jointed, the side pieces are firmly connected to the mouthpiece. This effectively protects your horse's corners of the mouth and ensures that the bit lies much more quietly in the mouth and cannot be pulled through when the reins are used.
