Sprenger Dynamic RS Bit Aurigan 16mm Single Jointed

Sprenger Dynamic RS Bit Aurigan 16mm Single-Jointed

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest part in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it a rather medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-bloods and Shire horses rather 18mm and larger.

When choosing the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Sprenger bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to introduce you to the Sprenger Dynamic RS Aurigan 16mm single-jointed bit from the Sprenger range in more detail:

The Sprenger Dynamic RS Aurigan 16mm single-jointed bit is made of Aurigan and equipped with loose ring cheeks, i.e. rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is single-jointed.

Bit thickness

Cheekpiece

Loose ring snaffle

A loose ring characterizes a loose ring snaffle. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Sprenger Dynamic RS Aurigan 16mm single-jointed bit is therefore a bit for horses that prefer a more "mobile" bit in the mouth.

Mouthpiece

single-jointed

A single-jointed bit has one hinge point, which means less pressure is exerted on the tongue than with a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and the sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. The single-jointed mouthpiece is certainly the most common of all mouthpieces, alongside the double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Material

Aurigan

Aurigan consists of 85% copper, silicon and zinc. In order to keep copper nickel-free, more complex work steps are necessary, which make the material more expensive, which is why Sprenger's Aurigan bits are more expensive than bits made of stainless steel or Argentan.
