The Jake Adams Equestrian Double Jointed Leather Covered D Bit pairs the strength of a stainless steel core with the softer feel of a leather-wrapped mouthpiece. As the leather becomes lightly moistened during use, it softens and conforms slightly, creating a softer surface than the bare metal.  Flat, non-abrasive stitching keeps the mouthpiece smooth and comfortable to help minimize rubbing or irritation.

The double-jointed design with a center link allows the bit to lie more evenly over the horses tongue and bars, reducing the “nutcracker” action associated with single-jointed bits and promoting clearer, more comfortable contact. Finished with D-ring cheekpieces, it offers lateral stability and a steady, consistent connection.

Key Features

Key Features of the Leather-Covered Mouthpiece

  • Softens with Saliva :The leather covering the bit becomes more pliable when moistened, offering a gentler surface for horses that prefer softer mouthpieces and encouraging better acceptance in sensitive mouths.
  • Durable Core with Leather Overlay : A solid metal core wrapped in high-quality leather combines strength with a softer feel compared to bare metal bits.
  • Flat, Non-Abrasive Stitching : The stitching lies flush against the leather, reducing the chance of rubbing or irritation and keeping the mouthpiece comfortable for the horse.

Double Jointed Features :

  • Even Pressure Distribution: The two joints with a center link reduce palate pressure and distributes contact more evenly across the tongue, bars, and corners of the mouth.
  • Tongue Pressure Variation: The size and shape of the center link influence how much tongue pressure is applied, making it adaptable for horses with different mouth conformations.
  • Greater Mobility: The design allows the mouthpiece to move more freely than a single joint, improving comfort and reducing resistance in many horses.

D-Ring Design Features :

  • Lateral Stability : The fixed D-shaped rings provide lateral stability, preventing the bit from sliding through the horse’s mouth and offering more precise control.
  • Direct Communication : The D-Ring allows for a more stable and direct connection between the rider's hands and the horse’s mouth, making it suitable for horses that need clearer guidance and more consistent contact.
  • Gentle Guidance : While providing stability, the D-Ring design ensures smooth and gentle communication between horse and rider, encouraging responsiveness without discomfort.
