The Waterford 2.5 Ring by Bombers Bits has many smooth flexible bumps or bubbles, which spreads the pressure over many points making it a light mouthpiece. The additional flexibility impedes a horse from leaning on it.
The Waterford bit is a good choice for a horse that leans, it also helps mouthing and salivation.The Waterford is usually worn ¼ ½ longer than your traditional mouthpiece to curl around the lips and maximise the effect .A Ring cheek piece introduces poll pressure as well creating leverage on the mouthpiece.
As a result, the 2 ½ ring version is the softest version of ring bit. The ½ ring softens the leverage on the mouthpiece and poll.
Additionally, all bomber bits are made from blue sweet iron, because it:
- Oxidises easily.
- Stimulates salivation.
- Helps bit acceptance.
- Is warm and sweet.
Please note the blue will fade with use.
