The black iron and copper compound slowly causing oxidisation and rust.  Slow-acting and harmless to horses, the oxidation has a sweet taste which the horse likes and which encourages salivation.  This metal will almost always discolour. The cheeks and joints of the bits are made from stainless steel which will not rust. A bit made of sweet iron will last for years and year and the rust will not flake off or harm the horse. The moisture in the air will also cause it to rust in the same way as it does with salvia. The only way to prevent this from happening is to store the bit in a heated environment. You can easily rub the bit down with very fine sandpaper which will remove the rust and will have no adverse effects on the bit or its use. We would also recommend washing the bit after every use but make sure that it is dried thoroughly. You can also coat it with vegetable oil when not in use again to slow the oxidization process down. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAdvantages of the butterfly snaffle\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• especially suitable in jumping\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• enhanced impact and control\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• supports horses in tight turns\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• buckling is possible in many ways:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1. If the reins are fixed on the center ring, the effect is similar to the one of a Baucher bit mostly acting on the horse’s mouth and putting only a slight pressure on the neck.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2. If the reins are fixed on the lower ring, the lever action is intensified. The bit then acts similar to a 3-ring gag. However, the pressure is distributed more evenly on the horse’s mouth and neck so that horses accept this bit more easily than a 3-ring gag.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e3. A medium impact can be obtained by using a pelham strap fixed on the center ring and lower ring.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e4.
