About Nathe bits
Nathe bits are designed for sensitive mouths: a smooth, mouth-friendly thermoplastic that many horses accept quickly, paired with well-balanced cheeks for quiet, even contact.
Why riders choose Nathe
The temperature-neutral, hypoallergenic mouthpiece helps encourage relaxed chewing and steady salivation. Clear aids without the “rubber eraser” feel make Nathe a favourite for green, sensitive or retraining horses.
Mouthpieces & feel
Our focused selection covers the key profiles you’ll actually use: straight (Mullen) bars for even pressure, tongue-relief ports for horses that press, and jointed options for a livelier connection. Choose the mildest shape that keeps responses consistent.
Cheeks that suit everyday work
We stock popular cheeks for schooling and the ring—such as loose ring and eggbutt—plus select options for extra stability or guidance. Pick the cheek that matches your steering needs and your horse’s way of going.
Fit & sizing
Measure width between the inside edges of the rings/cheeks and allow a little clearance at the lips. Match thickness and flexibility to mouth conformation so the bit sits quietly without crowding a low palate or fleshy tongue.
Care & inspection
Rinse after riding and clean gently with mild soap; avoid abrasives and high heat. Check for tooth marks or surface damage and replace the bit if the mouthpiece is compromised.
