Premier Equine Sweet Iron Loose Ring Mullen Mouth Snaffle Bit
This snaffle bit stands out as it lacks a joint, featuring a slight curve and a medium port mouth. This design results in a gentle action, applying pressure evenly across the tongue rather than the more sensitive bars and lips. The absence of a joint eliminates any nutcracker or pinching action, making these bits popular for use on horses with sensitive palates. The blue sweet iron material easily oxidizes, creating a warming sensation and a sweet taste in the horse's mouth, aiding in bit acceptance. The mild mullen mouthpiece combined with the blue sweet iron material makes this bit well-suited for leisure riding or hacking, especially with more sensitive horses. However, due to the lack of a joint, this bit typically does not assist with lateral flexion, which is essential for dressage and jumping.
