The Shires 2 Ring Sweet Iron Gag encourages the horse to be softer in the mouth as the Sweet Iron is designed to oxidise in the mouth to produce a sweet taste and the Copper Peanut centre is more comfortable than the single nutcracker action.
Moving the rein between the main ring and bottom ring allows the rider more control.
The 5" and smaller sizes of this bit have smaller rings to ensure the bit remains in proportion.
Mouthpiece thickness: 16mm. Cheek height: 115mm (4.5, 5), 145mm (5.5, 6).
