CheekpieceThe Drop Cheek has an Eggbutt like ring at the mouthpiece for the rein, with an upper cheek that has a ring at its end, to which the cheek piece of the bridle is attached. The mouthpiece does not slide on its ring resulting in light poll pressure. The cheek pieces lie flat against the horse’s face, and the mouthpiece is quite fixed in the mouth and concentrates pressure on the bars.MouthpieceThe Lock Up snaffle removes the nut cracker action of the conventional snaffle, meaning no pinch and less pressure on the bars.Material:Sweet Iron:Oxidizes easilyEncourages salivationHelps bit acceptanceWarm and sweet Our bits should be washed after every use and checked for wear.If the bit has been out of use for some time, a kitchen scourer maybe necessary to remove built up oxidation.
