Bombers Bits BC45 Petros Loose Ring Eggbutt Bit

The Bombers Control Plate (BC45 Petros Loose Ring Eggbutt) is set at 45° to follow the contour of the horse’s tongue. Consequently, a horse that uses his tongue as a means of pushing against the bit and therefore taking control will draw back and tuck his chin in, coming back to a better point of control.

This differs from a Dr Bristol which sits horizontally with the edge of the plate on the tongue.

The Eggbutt Loose Ring stops pinching of the lips and gives a slightly more solid feel against the side of the face. It also stops the bit being pulled through the mouth. The Eggbutt Loose Ring provides the quick release of a Loose Ring.

Additionally, all bomber bits are made from blue sweet iron, because it:

• Oxidises easily
• Encourages salivation
• Helps bit acceptance
• Is warm and sweet

Please note the blue will fade with use.
