The Korsteel Sweet Iron French Link Loose Ring Snaffle Bit has been made from black iron and copper which slowly oxidises and rusts, producing a sweet taste in your horse's mouth to encourage salivation and a more relaxed jaw. This french link snaffle design applies pressure evenly across your horse's tongue and eliminates the nutcracker action. The loose rings provides more movement which allows you to move the bit around more in your horse's mouth to discourage him from leaning against your hand and the reins. Also available without the french link and just a single joint, take a look at the Korsteel Sweet Iron Jointed Loose Ring Snaffle Bit. Size Guide Available in 4.5", 5", 5.5", or 6". A mobile bit that discourages staring and leaning on the forehand. Soft bit designed to give the rider independent control of each side of the mouth, preferable for horses with less palate space. The soft iron mouthpiece is warmer than other metals and encourages salivation and relaxation.
