Schneiders® California Pleasure With Silver Cheeks
Cheeks are made of black steel with a black nickel overlay and German silver trim. The swept back angle of the port and cheeks gives this bit just enough palate and tongue relief to give you the right amount of pressure for that needed response.
Great bit that limits hand movement while keeping horse's head position
Allows milder palate pressure with the swept back spoon port
Medium port reminds horses to keep their heads in the 'comfort zone'
Black stainless steel cheeks with engraved German silver overlay
Sweet iron mouthpiece with copper inlay promotes salivation and increases sensitivity
Longer, straighter shanks quickens response from the hand to the bit
Bits are most commonly made of stainless steel. Stainless steel can be cleaned and polished repeatedly without damaging the finish. It is strong, durable, and flavorless and does not impact salivation. Some stainless steel mouths are inlaid with copper.
Copper
Copper encourages salivation to increase the sensitivity of the horse’s mouth. It warms up quicker than stainless steel in cold weather.
Sweet Iron
Sweet iron is cold-rolled steel. The material appears rusty after repeated use. This oxidation tastes sweet to the horse and increases salivation.
Rubber
Rubber softens the action of the bit as it is softer than traditional metals. Rubber-covered bits are generally thicker than metal.
Aluminum
Aluminum is lightweight and easy to maintain.
Plastic
Plastic bits are softer than traditional metal bits and they are durable. Many plastic bits are scented or flavored.
Nickel Silver
Nickel silver is a nickel alloy, also known as German silver. It encourages salivation for a more sensitive and supple mouth.
Black Iron
The material appears rusty after repeated use. This oxidation tastes sweet tot he horse and increases salivation.
