This high-quality, double-jointed Baucher snaffle, with lever-action, upturned shanks, is made of solid Cuprigan with stainless steel rings. Cuprigan is an alloy consisting of 89% copper, 7% aluminum, 3% iron, and 1% zinc. The oxidation process of the material gives it a pleasant aroma and taste. The anatomical shape follows the shape of the horse's mouth, creating a gentle and even pressure distribution. The combination of the shape and the unique composition of Cuprigan stimulates chewing and salivation, creating a pleasant connection with the horse's sensitive mouth. The upturned shanks with ring are slightly angled outwards, providing optimal freedom for the horse's head. The mouthpiece has a thickness of 14 mm, and the shanks are 110 mm long.
A Baucher snaffle has raised shanks with a ring for attachment to the cheek pieces. Unlike other snaffle bits, this bit exerts pressure behind the horse's ears through a gentle lever action. The bit is well-suited for sensitive horses.
A double-jointed bit has a three-piece mouthpiece. The middle section of the mouthpiece lies flat on the tongue. This creates more pressure on the tongue than a single-jointed mouthpiece. The thicker the middle section, the more pressure on the tongue.
