Sweet Iron Icelandic Bit with Wave Ported Mouthpiece, Short Shanks & Curb Chain | BI-0175

Sweet Iron Icelandic Bit — Wave Ported Mouthpiece, Short Shanks & Curb Chain

The BI-0175 is an Icelandic bit with a sweet iron wave/S-curve ported mouthpiece, short swept-back shanks, and a curb chain. The sweet iron finish gives the mouthpiece a distinctive dark grey appearance and naturally oxidises over time to develop a mild, slightly sweet taste that encourages salivation and bit acceptance — making it an excellent choice for horses that are fussy or resistant with standard stainless steel bits.

• Sweet iron wave/S-curve ported mouthpiece — natural oxidisation encourages salivation and bit acceptance; gentle curves provide tongue relief
• Short swept-back shanks — mild leverage action suited to Icelandic horsemanship and light rein contact
• Loose rings at headpiece — allow freedom of movement and encourage relaxation at the poll
• Rein rings at shank base — standard rein attachment for easy use
• Curb chain — applies chin groove pressure for enhanced poll flexion and collection
• Sweet iron construction — naturally rusts to a mild, palatable surface; wipe dry after use to manage oxidisation
• Suitable for — tölt, trot, pace, and horses that benefit from sweet iron mouthpieces

A popular choice among Icelandic riders seeking improved bit acceptance — the sweet iron mouthpiece works with the horse's natural salivation to create a softer, more responsive contact. Available in multiple sizes.
