About Sprenger
Sprenger leads in innovative, horse-friendly bits that balance precise communication with comfort. From everyday snaffles to specialty designs, anatomically shaped mouthpieces help riders build a steadier, more confident connection.
Why riders choose Sprenger bits
Flagship technologies—KK Ultra (45° angled center lozenge), Dynamic RS (ergonomic shaping), and novocontact (oval, tongue-friendly surface)—are engineered to sit correctly in the mouth and deliver clear, gentle aids for training and the show ring.
Materials that promote acceptance
Sensogan (Sprenger’s copper-based alloy) encourages salivation and bit acceptance, while classic stainless steel delivers a familiar, crisp feel. Sensogan also reduces tarnish versus older copper alloys, simplifying day-to-day care.
Picking cheeks and mouthpieces
Loose ring offers mobility; eggbutt or D-ring add stability; full cheek provides lateral guidance. For stronger horses, Pelham, universal, or gag styles add measured leverage—always matched to educated hands and your rulebook.
Fit and thickness
Measure the width between the inside edges of the rings/cheeks with slight clearance at the lips. Match thickness to mouth conformation: thinner can suit smaller mouths/low palates; moderate thickness often feels milder when the bit sits quietly.
Care & maintenance
Rinse after each ride, deep-clean periodically (especially joints), and treat covered/synthetic sections gently. Copper-rich alloys may darken—polish as needed—while stainless steel wipes clean.
