Baucher Snaffle made of burnished iron with single broken solid mouthpiece. Flat, decorated side parts in the style of the Spanish Vaqueros. With a bit thickness of 13 mm particularly thin and also suitable for horses with little space in the mouth.

Effect of the Baucher bit

The buckling on the bridle is done via the short upper trees. This means that the Baucher bit is more stable in the mouth, offers a lateral positioning option via the pressure on the horse's cheek and sags less downwards than, for example, a classic loose ring snaffle bit. Even when chewing, it can only be moved minimally in the direction of the incisors. This is a particular advantage in horses with a short mouth gap. The slight vertical play at the junction between mouthpiece and the upper trees also promotes chewing activity. Through natural oxidation processes and the formation of noble rust, the burnished iron stimulates salivation.

The Baucher bit is used without curb chain and has no leverage. Instead, the bit moves more towards the corner of the mouth when the reins are pulled and has an effect there. This results in a straightening effect for many horses.

The right size for the Baucher bit

Under "Size guide" (see above) you will find the real dimensions of the single-break mouthpiece. If you are unsure, we recommend that you compare the real dimensions of your existing bit with those of the Baucher bit to find the correct size. Please note that the side pieces should fit close to the corners of your horse's mouth. If your horse fluctuates between two sizes, we recommend you choose the larger size for this model.

Care instructions for burnished iron

Rust forms on traditional, burnished products or product components after some time. This is caused by natural oxidation processes and is not a quality defect, but an essential and desired characteristic of this material. To maintain the dark color, it is advisable to occasionally rub the affected parts with a cloth soaked in olive oil.
