This design can be beneficial for horses with a sensitive mouth or tongue, helping promote improved bit acceptance and a more consistent connection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe mouthpiece is handmade in sweet iron. When exposed to moisture, sweet iron produces a warming effect and a mild sweet taste in the horse’s mouth. These qualities can encourage increased mouthing and salivation, which may support a softer and more relaxed feel in the contact.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe eggbutt cheekpiece provides a fixed connection between the mouthpiece and the ring, helping keep the bit stable in the horse’s mouth. This design helps maintain a consistent feel in the contact while reducing movement of the mouthpiece.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Sweet Iron Port Eggbutt Bit combines tongue relief, the responsive qualities of sweet iron, and a stable cheekpiece designed for consistent contact.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Sweet Iron\u003cbr\u003eMouth Thickness: 14mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c!-- x-tinymce\/html --\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e**\u003c\/strong\u003eDue to the contagious nature of the equine disease EHV-1 and per biosecurity measure guidelines suggested by the American Association of Equine Practitioners, \u003cstrong\u003eThe\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFarm House will no longer accept any returns on bits or bit accessories.**\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e","brand":"AJR","offers":[{"title":"135mm","offer_id":45823758368953,"sku":"AJR-ESIP2040","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0310\/2179\/3325\/files\/ea17e32d-aaaa-4438-9144-f2cf478250c3.png?v=1784559269","url":"https:\/\/www.farmhousetack.com\/products\/ajr-sweet-iron-port-eggbutt-bit","provider":"Farm House Tack","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
