Ideal for preventing friction-induced bleeding in horses with sensitive mouths.

Protects the corners of the horse's mouth, increasing comfort and focus during riding.
Offers long-lasting use thanks to its durable construction and is resistant to saliva.
Product Description
Cheek pads are a small but vital accessory designed to protect the oral health of a horse. It is a common problem for bit rings or the mouthpiece to pinch or irritate the cheek skin, especially during steering. These soft rubber discs create a protective barrier between the bit and the horse's face, improving riding quality.
Flexibility and Application: The product is flexible enough to fit all standard bit models. During application, it is stretched slightly, passed over the bit ring, and secured at the end of the mouthpiece. This prevents the bit from sliding excessively from side to side inside the horse's mouth, helping to transmit the rider's commands more evenly.
Technical Advantages and Pros
Sensitive Skin Protection: Prevents the delicate skin around the lip from being compressed by metal bit parts.
Soft Material: High-quality rubber/silicone blend that conforms to the horse's facial contours and does not irritate the skin.
Slip Control: Minimizes excessive movement of the bit inside the mouth, increasing command accuracy.
Hygienic Design: Easily washable and cleanable after training thanks to its smooth surface.
Areas of Use
All riding for horses with sensitive or easily injured lip edges.
Young horses beginning training and still in the process of accepting the bit.
Situations where the bit moves excessively inside the mouth and needs to be fixed.
To maximize the horse's mouth comfort during competitions and training.
