2253 Large D-ring snaffle 2in1 single jointed

The 2in1 bits from Stübben SteelTEC offer two levels of action in one bit. This is made possible by two differently processed sides, a rounded side and a more angular side for more punctual pressure. The 2in1 bits therefore offer a flexible solution for different training requirements.

A simple sign helps to keep track: If a + can be seen on the outside left of the bit on the mounting side, the more effective side is fitted. If this sign is missing, the softer side is fitted.

The large D-ring snaffle 2in1 single jointed mainly acts evenly on the bars, the joint in the centre relieves the tongue. The D-ring provides better lateral stabilisation and guidance and creates calm and stability in the horse's mouth. The rein action is slightly softened by the large D-rings. This side piece should lie lightly on the side. 

Advantages at a glance

Buckling options and pressure distribution

• Gentle action: If the round side of the bit is buckled towards the horse's tongue, the bit is used as a normal water snaffle. This setting is ideal for general daily use.
• Selective action: If the more angular side of the bit is buckled towards the horse's tongue, a more targeted, selective action is achieved. This setting enables more precise communication with the horse and can be helpful in special training situations.

Mouthpiece

• Consisting of stainless steel and SWEET copper centrepiece
• Stainless steel is robust, tasteless and odourless

For which horses is this bit particularly suitable? 

• for horses that become stronger in certain situations (e.g. in the field, when jumping, etc.)
• for horses that have normal mouth activity
• for horses that need a little more lateral stability
• for young horses that are in training

Instructions for proper use

Any bit can cause pain if used roughly or improperly, and this is especially true for bits with leverage effects. The wrong size can also be painful for the horse. Please contact us with any questions about size and fastening, or read more about choosing the right size [here] and proper fitting.

Please make sure that you do not permanently use the stronger side of the 2in1 bit.
