KK ULTRA Kimblewick 16 mm - Sensogan

KK ULTRA bits are the pioneers of modern bits because they have been developed on the basis of scientific research. They achieve their unique, precise effect through the special 45° angle of the middle link. When used correctly, the horse’s confidence in the rider’s hand is enhanced, which is why these bits are used successfully worldwide in all disciplines and across all training levels – a genuine all-round talent!
Compared to conventional bits, the middle link has also been shortened. This anatomical adaptation noticeably optimises the effect compared to conventional double jointed bits.
When the reins are taken up, the middle link – also known as the “lozenge” because of its striking shape – gently rolls over the central part of the horse’s tongue, stimulating its sense of touch.

This Kimblewick allows for effective and precise rein aids on tongue, poll, and lower jaw. Depending on the attachment of the reins the leverage effect can be adjusted. Meaning you can individually adjust the bit to your horse while having less leverage in comparison to a pelham. A Kimblewick is used in combination with a curb strap. The latter should allow a 45° angle between shank and mouth in order to limit the pressure on the poll.

How do I care for my Sensogan bits?

You should always wash your bits thoroughly with water and dry them after each use. SENSOGAN bits contain copper. Oxidation causes the bits to darken and may lose their shine. However, metal bits are particularly easy to clean and maintain with the help of our "Diamond Paste".

Sensogan

Alloy of copper, manganese and zinc. Manganese hardens the copper without affecting the natural oxidation process of the copper. Thanks to the manganese, the alloy has a lower copper content but achieves the same oxidation behavior as AURIGAN.
