Straight eggbutt bit from Källquist Equestrian. The bit has fixed rings and is made of stainless steel.
Straight bits provide more stability and a consistently even pressure distribution in the horse’s mouth compared to, for example, a single jointed snaffle bit.
Bits with fixed rings sit more steadily in the horse’s mouth than bits with loose rings, which are more flexible and allow the horse to influence the position of the bit. Fixed-ring bits are often recommended for young horses, horses in training, or horses that have difficulty finding contact with the bit. They generally offer better support. However, more experienced horses can benefit from loose-ring bits, as they provide a quicker release, which also makes them well-suited for beginner riders.
The thickness of the bit is 12mm. The diameter of the rings is 5.5cm.
