Abstract

The bit for horses comprises a bit bar formed from a moulded article with an oval or circular cross-section and made from a resilient-elastic material having a high abrasive resistance, which conically widens from the center of the two moulded article ends provided with the through-bores for rings for fixing the reins, accompanied by the formation of a central, narrow, resilient-elastic web extending over a short section and has frontally flattened horse tongue contact surfaces, which leads to a bit bar with high abrasive resistance, adequate central mobility and which is advantageous for the horse's tongue.
