Velari Eggbutt Single Jointed Sweet Copper – combines a single-jointed mouthpiece made from nickel-free Sweet Copper with fixed Eggbutt sides. The single-jointed construction provides clear and direct transmission of the rein aids, while the Eggbutt rings keep the mouthpiece quiet and stable in the horse’s mouth. This creates a consistent connection without unnecessary lateral movement.
According to the manufacturer, the Sweet Copper mouthpiece provides a warm, naturally sweet taste that stimulates salivation and can help sensitive horses remain soft and accepting in the contact. Sweet Copper does not oxidise according to the manufacturer, allowing it to maintain its smooth surface and consistent flavour over time. This makes the material particularly suited to sensitive horses that benefit from a calm and inviting contact.
When the reins are taken, the single-jointed mouthpiece forms a V-shape and distributes pressure across the tongue and bars. According to the manufacturer, this construction can suit horses with a higher palate that prefer a clearly defined point of action. The fixed Eggbutt rings simultaneously limit excessive lateral movement and reduce the risk of pinching at the corners of the mouth. The Velari Eggbutt Single Jointed Sweet Copper is therefore designed for sensitive horses and riders seeking a precise, straightforward and stable connection.
