The 2481 Easy Control 4 in 1 Loose Ring Snaffle offers a versatile training tool: under normal contact it acts like a regular double-jointed snaffle, but when strong, symmetrical rein pressure is applied, it transforms into a bar-bit effect. With four different rein-attachment options, it allows tailored pressure distribution and nuanced influence. Made from stainless steel for taste- and odor-neutral contact.

Description  

The Stübben SteelTEC Easy Control bits are activated by strong, bilateral pressure from the horse, turning them into a bar bit. With normal contact with the reins and as soon as the rider or the horse relaxes, the bit becomes flexible again and can be used like a regular snaffle bit. This allows for precise yet mouth-friendly aids when needed.

Thanks to the effect of the Easy Control bit, horses often learn to hold back on their own as soon as the bar effect kicks in. Therefore, Easy Control bits should be used for training purposes for short periods, with regular checks to see if the desired learning effect has been achieved.

The Easy Control 4in1 bit offers four different ways of attaching the reins, allowing for individual pressure distribution and varying effects. The double-jointed mouthpiece distributes pressure evenly over the tongue and bars.

 

Advantages at a Glance

Effect:
When the horse applies strong pressure forward on both reins, the bit acts like a bar. As soon as the horse or rider relaxes (on one side), the bit, depending on the attachment, acts like a double-jointed snaffle.

 

Attachment Options and Pressure Distribution:
Multifunctional snaffle rings allow for various rein attachments to individually adjust the pressure on the mouth and poll as needed:

  1. Option 1: Attach the bridle to the upper small ring and the rein to the large ring - acts like a snaffle.
  2. Option 2: Attach the bridle to the upper small ring and the rein to the lower small ring - applies slight leverage on the mouth and poll.
  3. Option 3: Attach the bridle to the large ring and the rein to the lower small ring - greater effect on the mouth as the snaffle rings can only slide through to a limited extent.
  4. Option 4: Attach lifting cheek pieces through the small rings and two pairs of reins, one to the lifting cheek piece and one to the large ring - significant leverage on the poll and lifting effect on the mouth. WARNING: This attachment should only be used briefly and by experienced riders.

Note on Proper Use

Any bit can cause pain if used roughly and improperly. An incorrect size can also be painful for the horse. Please contact us if you have questions about size and fastening, or read more here  about choosing the right size and proper fitting. Please ensure that Easy Control bits are regularly switched out to check for the desired training effect.

Size Guide  

Measure your horse’s mouth width by placing a bit sizer, string, or dowel between the corners of the lips (at the position where the bit will sit), mark the ends, then measure the distance.

The bit width should be such that the rings rest just outside (or very slightly beyond) the lip corners—if the bit is too narrow, it will pinch; too wide, it will shift side to side.

For loose ring bits, allow a little “play” so the rings can rotate freely without pinching the lips.

When mounted in the bridle, the bit should sit such that there is 1–2 small wrinkles at the corners of the mouth (but this is not a perfect rule for all jointed bits)

The bit should lie on the bars (the toothless gap between incisors and molars) and not press into teeth or interfere with the palate.

Care Instructions  

Washing
After each ride, rinse or wipe the bit to remove saliva, feed residues, or sweat. Use lukewarm water and, if needed, a mild, pH-neutral detergent or saddle soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the metal surface and reduce the bit’s longevity.

Drying
Once cleaned, dry the bit thoroughly with a soft cloth. Allow it to air dry completely before storage. Do not expose the bit to direct sunlight, and never place it on or near heat sources such as heaters or radiators.

Storage
Store your bit in a dry, well-ventilated environment, protected from moisture and temperature fluctuations. For best results, keep bits individually or padded to prevent metal parts from rubbing or scratching each other. Avoid leaving the bit attached to the bridle for extended periods, especially in humid conditions.

Guidance  

Any bit can cause pain if used roughly or improperly. The wrong size can also be painful for the horse.
Use this bit for training purposes and short sessions, especially when the horse tends to rush, lean on the hand or becomes strong during certain phases. Because of the 4-in-1 setting and dual-effect design, it requires disciplined, soft, consistent hands and correct fitting. Monitor progress closely and switch bit as soon as the desired effect has been achieved.
