The Market Advantage of Rubber-Covered Bits

Traditional rubber is one of the most widely recognized and requested materials for soft-mouth bits. By ensuring your retail catalog features a comprehensive range of expertly manufactured rubber bits, you cater to a massive demographic of amateur riders, trainers, and riding schools looking for forgiving hardware:

• Soft, Forgiving Contact: The thick rubber casing significantly softens the impact of the mouthpiece against the horse's bars and tongue. This makes it an ideal choice for riders with unsteady hands or horses recovering from mouth trauma.

• Encourages Chewing and Acceptance: The softer texture of the rubber naturally encourages the horse to mouth the bit and relax its jaw, which is a critical first step when introducing hardware to young or unbroken horses.

• Structural Safety (Steel Core): A common concern with rubber bits is breakage. We eliminate this risk by manufacturing all our rubber-covered bits with a heavy-duty, flexible stainless steel inner chain or core, ensuring the bit maintains absolute structural integrity even under extreme pressure.

FAQ's

Do rubber bits run thicker than standard stainless steel bits?

Yes, by design. Because the rubber is molded over a stainless steel core, rubber bits are inherently thicker (typically ranging from 15mm to 21mm). This thickness spreads pressure over a wider surface area, making the bit milder, but it may not be suitable for horses with very low palates or small mouths.

Can horses chew through rubber horse bits?

While rubber is highly durable, it is a softer material than metal or modern TPU. Over time, horses that heavily grind their teeth can wear down the rubber casing. However, because our bits feature a solid stainless steel inner core, the bit will never snap or fail in the horse's mouth, ensuring rider safety.

Are rubber bits legal for competitive dressage?

Generally, yes. Most standard rubber snaffles (like unjointed Mullen mouths or single-jointed rubber loose rings) are legal for competition under major federations like the FEI and USDF, provided they meet standard shape and thickness regulations.
