It is oxidized AURIGAN bits that produce the distintive and pleasant taste that horses love. This particular taste encourages horses to chew and produce saliva which leads to rapid acceptance of the AURIGAN bit. The extraordinary advantages of AURIGAN as a material for bits has been proved by scientific research. The excellent acceptance of AURIGAN in the horses mouth has been confirmed by a long-term study at the University if Hanover. AURIGAN is a special nickle-free alloy which, due to the inclusion of silicon, combines the oxidation advantages of pure copper with maximum strength. This is guaranteed by the unique formula and composition of AURIGAN which exceed the quality of German Silver. A high copper content in a bit material does not always result in optimum oxidation. Aluminium and nickle ingrediants actually inhibit the oxidisation process of the metal in the horses mouth slowing down the reaction AURIGAN bits ensure perfect harmony and satisfy the highest demands of competition, together with the expectations of ambitious leisure riders
This bit lies perfectly in the mouth because the mouthpiece is angled forward by 45°. In contrast to the other loose ring snaffles the aids given with the reins on this new bit reach the horse’s mouth more precisely but still in a soft way. The bit is more readily accepted resulting in prompt and ideal chewing activity. This new loose ring snaffle helps to prevent tongue vices - putting the tongue over the bit often stops almost immediately when this bit is used.
