  • Sprenger novocontact loose ring snaffle 
  • 14 mm double jointed
  • Made of Sensogan
  • novocontact bits are designed to create a unique oval shape which widens the contact surface on the tongue while the rider keeps a steady contact
  • Optimal utilisation of the limited space in the horse’s mouth
  • As the rider gives a rein aid the mouthpiece turns forward and the contact surface gets narrower, ensuring more precise and effective communication.
  • novocontact bits improve the interaction between horse and rider for a better contact and acceptance of the bit
  • Double jointed novocontact bits are also ideal to use on horses that occasionally tend to pull against the hand, but are too sensitive to be ridden with stronger bits
  • Developed on the latest scientific research and suitable for every type of horse
  • Ring size 70mm
  • Sprenger code - 40455 78

    Fabric & Care Guide

    Rinse thoroughly with clean water after each use to remove saliva and debris
    Wipe dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots
    Clean with warm water and a soft brush or sponge
    For stubborn residue, use mild soap and rinse thoroughly
    Dry completely before storage
    Sensogan naturally oxidises and may darken over time - this is normal and indicates the copper is working
    Use Sprenger Diamond Paste to restore shine and remove oxidation
    Store in a dry place when completely dry
    Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasives that may damage the Sensogan finish
    Note: The copper content in Sensogan encourages salivation and bit acceptance - oxidation is a natural process
