{"product_id":"double-jointed-leather-covered-loose-ring","title":"Double Jointed Leather Covered Loose Ring","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eDouble Jointed Leather Covered Loose Ring Bit\u003c\/strong\u003e has a stainless steel core wrapped in leather, providing strength while offering a softer surface than a bare metal bit. The leather softens slightly when moistened, giving a gentler surface for horses with sensitive mouths. Flat, non-abrasive stitching keeps the mouthpiece smooth, reducing the risk of irritation. Loose ring cheekpieces allow the bit to move freely in the horse’s mouth, encouraging jaw mobility and preventing the horse from locking against the contact. The double-jointed mouthpiece has a central link that distributes pressure evenly and reduces the nutcracker effect. Ideal for horses that benefit from a mobile mouthpiece and respond better to a softer, leather covered bit than to a standard metal one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features of the Leather-Covered Mouthpiece\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSoftens with Saliva :\u003c\/b\u003eThe leather covering the bit becomes more pliable when moistened, offering a gentler surface for horses that prefer softer mouthpieces and encouraging better acceptance in sensitive mouths.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDurable Core with Leather Overlay\u003c\/b\u003e : A solid metal core wrapped in high-quality leather combines strength with a softer feel compared to bare metal bits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFlat, Non-Abrasive Stitching\u003c\/b\u003e : The stitching lies flush against the leather, reducing the chance of rubbing or irritation and keeping the mouthpiece comfortable for the horse.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDouble Jointed Features :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEven Pressure Distribution:\u003c\/strong\u003e The two joints with a center link reduce palate pressure and distributes contact more evenly across the tongue, bars, and corners of the mouth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTongue Pressure Variation:\u003c\/strong\u003e The size and shape of the center link influence how much tongue pressure is applied, making it adaptable for horses with different mouth conformations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGreater Mobility:\u003c\/strong\u003e The design allows the mouthpiece to move more freely than a single joint, improving comfort and reducing resistance in many horses.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLoose Ring Design Features :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncreased Flexibility : \u003c\/strong\u003eThe loose ring design allows the bit rings to move independently, minimizing pressure on the horse’s mouth and encouraging relaxation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdaptive Control : \u003c\/strong\u003eThe strength and effectiveness of the bit vary depending on factors such as material, thickness, and overall design.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePinch Prevention : \u003c\/strong\u003eFor horses with sensitive mouth corners, rubber bit rings can be added to prevent pinching and increase comfort.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBit Type :\u003c\/strong\u003e Loose Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial : \u003c\/strong\u003eStainless Steel \u0026amp; Leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMouthpiece Thickness :\u003c\/strong\u003e 18mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCheekpiece Size : \u003c\/strong\u003e75mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Jake Adams Equestrian","offers":[{"title":"125mm","offer_id":42934088106007,"sku":"LRDJL125","price":63.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"135mm","offer_id":42934088138775,"sku":"LRDJL135","price":63.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"145mm","offer_id":42934088171543,"sku":"LRDJL145","price":63.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/2567\/5543\/files\/Double-Jointed-Leather-Covered-Loose-Ring.png?v=1764951679","url":"https:\/\/jakeadamsequestrian.com\/products\/double-jointed-leather-covered-loose-ring","provider":"Jake Adams Equestrian","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
