The right curb chain makes a meaningful difference in how a double bridle works — and this one is worth doing properly.
The Sprenger Aurigan Curb Chain finished in the stunning gold hue is designed specifically to complement Sprenger Weymouth bits, matching the warm golden Aurigan alloy of the bit itself for a coordinated, purposeful setup. More than aesthetics, Aurigan is a patented copper, silicon and zinc alloy developed by Sprenger and toxicologically tested by the University of Veterinary Medicine Hanover — it actively encourages salivation and chewing activity in the horse, with a positive effect on comfort, concentration and willingness to perform.
The 28-link design allows for finer, more precise adjustment increments than a 24-link chain, giving you the ability to dial in curb pressure with greater accuracy. Stainless steel rings and cheeks provide durability at the contact points while the Aurigan links deliver the softness where it counts — against the horse's chin groove.
Correctly fitted, a curb chain should lie flat in the chin groove and engage only when the shank reaches approximately 45 degrees. Too tight and it acts before the bit has had a chance to work. Too loose and it offers no support at all. The 28-link adjustment means you're far less likely to end up between sizes.
Approved for FEI competition use including Dressage Classes.
