Aster Confidence Titanium double jointed lock up fixed ring

The Aster Confidence titanium double jointed lock-up fixed ring is designed to provide stability and reassurance while maintaining a softer, more even feel across the tongue.

Crafted in premium titanium, the mouthpiece offers gentle warmth and lightness in the mouth. The central double joint distributes pressure more evenly than a traditional single joint, supporting horses who prefer a flatter, more accommodating feel.

The subtle lock-up mechanism prevents over-collapse of the mouthpiece, maintaining straightness and stability without creating rigidity. This allows rein aids to be reinforced clearly, while avoiding sharp or exaggerated reactions in the contact.

A considered option for developing horses, sensitive mouths, or those seeking greater stability without excess interference.

Good for the following horses:

•             Reluctant to take a consistent contact

•             Unsettled or unstable in other bits

•             Greener or more sensitive horses needing reassurance

•             Horses sensitive to single joint pressure, or that hang on one rein

•             Those who dip in and out of the connection

The fixed ring, commonly known as an eggbutt, holds the mouthpiece in a steady position, preventing excessive sliding or rotation.

This reduced mobility allows rein aids to feel more immediate and direct, with a slightly slower release compared to a loose ring. For some horses, this creates a clearer, more defined conversation and greater consistency in the contact.
