The Herm Sprenger KK Ultra Sensogan® Loose Ring Bit has a 16mm Sensogan mouthpiece with a center link that is rotated 45° to rest smoothly on the tongue. This design helps promote a sensitive and precise connection between the rider and the horse. Stainless steel rings are 70mm.
Sensogan mouthpiece metal was developed by the experts at Herm Sprenger. It helps promote a delicate and sensitive connection to the horse. Sensogan instills a pleasant taste, encourages salivation and promotes bit acceptance. It also significantly regulates the oxidation process to allow the bit to maintain its beautiful color.
Distinctively unique, this metal is a propriety blend of copper, zinc and manganese. A reduced copper content allows some oxidation to occur, but the addition of manganese regulates and slows oxidation which in turn slows discoloration. Manganese is also an important micronutrient for horses, as a crucial component and activator of enzymes. All Sensogan bits are marked with a black ring at the cheeks.
