Product Description

Bevel Bit with Copper Lozenge

Overview

The Bevel Bit with Copper Lozenge is designed to provide improved control while maintaining comfort for the horse. Riders often choose this bit when they need slightly more influence without using a harsh mouthpiece. The Bevel Bit with Copper Lozenge offers mild leverage, which helps refine communication between horse and rider during schooling or faster work.

In addition, the copper lozenge encourages natural salivation. Therefore, it helps the horse relax and accept the bit more willingly. While traditional snaffles provide direct contact, the bevel design adds subtle leverage for clearer signals. Consequently, this bit is a practical choice for riders who want better responsiveness while maintaining a soft feel.

Benefits

A balanced bit supports both comfort and control. This design encourages relaxation while giving the rider additional influence when needed.

Key benefits include:

• Copper lozenge promotes salivation and relaxation
• Mild leverage improves responsiveness and control
• Double-jointed mouthpiece spreads pressure evenly
• Suitable for schooling, jumping, and everyday riding
• Smooth stainless steel construction for durability

In addition, the Bevel Bit with Copper Lozenge helps prevent excessive pressure on one area of the mouth. Because the lozenge sits comfortably on the tongue, many horses remain softer in the contact. Therefore, riders often notice improved responsiveness and steadier communication.

How It Works / Directions

This bit uses a double-jointed mouthpiece with a copper lozenge in the center. The lozenge rests on the tongue and distributes pressure more evenly. Consequently, it avoids the strong nutcracker effect of some single-jointed bits.

The bevel rings create mild leverage depending on rein placement.

For correct use:

• Attach the cheekpieces of the bridle to the top ring
• Connect the reins to the lower ring for mild leverage
• Ensure the bit forms one to two wrinkles at the mouth corners
• Maintain steady and balanced rein contact

While riding, use light and consistent aids. Therefore, the horse can respond calmly and comfortably.

Safety

Horse welfare should always guide tack choices. The Bevel Bit with Copper Lozenge offers gentle leverage, however correct use is essential.

For safe riding:

• Check the bit regularly for wear or rough edges
• Ensure the correct mouthpiece size for your horse
• Use soft, educated hands during training

In addition, gradual introduction helps the horse adapt to the bit comfortably.
