Description
Premier Equine Blue Sweet Iron Bevel Bit with Brass Alloy Lozenge
- The Bevel bit allows mild leverage and offers a little more control, promoting responsiveness and a correct head carriage.
- The double jointed blue sweet iron mouthpiece with brass lozenge offers a higher level of comfort in the horse’s mouth.
- It helps to prevent the pinching of the lips and bars of the mouth whilst reducing the nutcracker action of a single jointed bit.
- Blue sweet iron oxidises easily which creates a warming sensation and a sweet taste in the horse’s mouth, helping them to accept the bit.
- Please note that the blue colour will fade with use, this is normal.

Blue Sweet Iron Horse Bits…
- Blue Sweet iron bits oxidise easily which creates a warm sweet taste in the horse’s mouth, encouraging them to salivate.
- Some horses often prefer the warm sensation of sweet iron compared to stainless steel which is naturally colder.
- Sweet iron bits are therefore ideal for sensitive horses or horses that need encouragement to mouth and accept the bit.
