The Loose Ring EP has more movement than an eggbutt as the mouthpiece isn’t fixed meaning there isn’t a fixed pressure on the tongue. Due to the ring being able to slide through the mouthpiece, the rider’s rein aid is not as direct as the eggbutt.

Like all WTP bits the Loose Ring EP sits steady in the mouth and is a great option for horses that are unsteady in the contact and try to avoid pressure from traditional bits.

The WTP bit design prevent pinching of the tongue, roof rubbing and poor contact. The unique mouth piece reduces the bit pressure by unto 85% and with the arms having limited movement the pressure placed on the horse’s cheeks is also reduced.

The Extended Tongue Plate is an option instead of using a tongue tie. It reduces the displacement of the soft palate and tongue and prevents the tongue hitting the epiglottis.

Fitting the Loose Ring EP – Like regular bits, look for 1-2 wrinkles in the skin at the corner of the mouth with around 5mm either side of the mouth to prevent rubbing. The WTP logo should be facing the roof of the horses mouth.
