JUMP'IN D-Ring Bit French Mouth Blue Steel

Composition: This D-ring bit features 16 mm cannons crafted from Blue Steel, an alloy composed of 54% carbon and 46% manganese. Known for its unique properties, Blue Steel oxidizes upon exposure to air and humidity, forming a thin layer of rust. This rust is sweet-tasting, which encourages saliva production and helps the horse relax. Over time, the bit develops a greyish-brown patina, enhancing both comfort and acceptance.

Effect: The D-ring design helps establish a consistent frame and keeps the horse focused, offering a practical alternative to a full cheek bit. The French mouthpiece provides additional comfort by reducing pressure on the horse’s palate, making it a gentler option.

Usage Advice: Ergonomically designed to fit a variety of horse types, this bit features thinner cannons than standard bits, allowing for greater finesse and precision in the rider’s aids. Its gentle yet effective design ensures a comfortable experience for your horse.

Sweet Iron / Blue Steel Properties:

• Material Composition: 54% carbon, 46% manganese.
• Oxidization: Both Sweet Iron and Blue Steel oxidize upon contact with air and humidity, forming a thin layer of rust. This rust is sweet-tasting, stimulating saliva production and encouraging the horse to accept the bit more readily. Over time, the bit will develop a greyish-brown patina.
