JP KORSTEEL SWEET IRON OVAL LINK LOOSE RING SNAFFLE BIT
The JP Korsteel Sweet Iron Oval Link Loose Ring Snaffle Bit is often useful for horses with large tongues or small mouths, as the lack of nutcracker action helps them to stay more settled.
The curved mouthpiece follows the contours of the horses mouth and is good for horses with a larger tongue.
Sweet iron is a good metal for horse bits, as it provides the horse with a 'taste', stainless steel is a very bland metal and a lot of horses find it difficult to relax and mouth a stainless steel bit.
JP Korsteel Sweet Iron Oval Link Loose Ring Snaffle Bit features:
- Double jointed bit similar to a french link but with a smooth lozenge in the middle for a slightly more positive action on the tongue
- Can be used in dressage competitions
- Bit strength: fairly mild
- Sweet iron oxidises in the horses mouth to produce a sweet taste and encourage salivation
