The Shires Blue Sweet Iron Bevel with Lozenge allows mild leverage offering you a little more control, promoting outline, head carriage and responsiveness. The blue sweet iron material oxidises easily, creating a warm and sweet taste that aids with acceptance of the bit. A brass alloy insert increases warmth and palatability. Take a look at our range of Horse Bridles to pair with this bit. Please note that the blue colour will fade over time. For more information about horse bits, take a look at our Bits Buying Guide.

The bevel bit allows mild leverage and offers a little more control, promoting outline, head carriage and responsiveness. The loose brass alloy discs in the centre can help to soothe a fussy tongued horse.
