Brass alloy full cheek bits are useful for green or young horses as they can help them to steer. The cheeks of the bit create a positive action against the horse's cheeks when asked to turn. The full cheek design also prevents the bit from being dragged into the horse's mouth.
Brass alloy is formed when copper is alloyed with a harder metal, producing a warm, durable material that is perfect for horse bits, as it promotes salivation and is more palatable to the horse. The central pad encourages a softer contact, reducing the nutcracker action of a single-joint bit, which is ideal for young or sensitive horses. Pressure is evenly distributed across the tongue and mouth bars for smooth performance.
