HORSE SNAFFLE BIT WITH TWO LATERAL PARTS AND A SHACKLE AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF

The invention relates to a horse snaffle bit with two lateral parts (20, 22) and a shackle (24), which is situated between these parts (20, 22) and which comprises: a) a least one joint (26, 28), and; b) two lateral sections (29, 31), each lateral section (29, 31) having an end located at a distance from the joint (26, 28) and a borehole (32) is made in these distal ends of the lateral sections (29, 31) in order to accommodate one of the parts (20, 22) in a manner that enables them to move freely. The invention is characterized in that: each lateral section (29, 31) has a first surface area (44) and a second surface area (46); the first surface area (44) extends from the joint (26, 28) to a distance of at least 20 % and no greater than 50 % of the overall length of the lateral section (29, 31) from the joint (26, 28); the second surface area (46) is connected to the first surface area (44) and extends to the distal end of the lateral section (29, 31); the first surface area (44) has a matte surface, and; the second surface area (46) has a high-lustrous surface.
