Product Specifications Product Item Number (SKU): 89-11485Frequently Asked QuestionsHow does the Sweet Iron mouthpiece work, and what care does it require?The Sweet Iron mouthpiece naturally oxidizes (rusts) when exposed to air and moisture, creating a pleasant, sweet taste in your horse's mouth. This encourages salivation and promotes a softer, more accepting attitude towards the bit. To maintain the bit effectively and ensure even corrosion, it's recommended to rinse it thoroughly after each use, wipe it dry, and occasionally apply a very light coat of vegetable oil, especially if storing for extended periods. This prevents excessive buildup and keeps the bit inviting for your horse.What is the function of the Correctional Ported Barrel (MB 47PB) and how does it provide tongue relief?The Myler MB 47PB features a unique correctional ported barrel designed to offer significant tongue relief. This design provides ample room for your horse's tongue to pass under the bit, encouraging jaw relaxation and acceptance. While it does apply mild pressure to the tongue as the bit collapses and rotates, the 1 ⅞" high port primarily targets the tongue and bars. It also provides some palate pressure, which helps encourage proper head carriage and can assist with horses that tend to elevate their heads. This combination aids in the horse relaxing at the poll and accepting the bit more readily.Which horses are best suited for the Myler MB 47PB bit, given its Myler Level 2-3 designation?The MB 47PB is classified as a Myler Level 2-3 bit, making it ideal for horses with intermediate to advanced training. It's suitable for horses that have a good understanding of basic aids but may still benefit from substantial tongue relief to prevent resistance or discomfort. It can also serve as a "training tune-up" tool to correct specific resistance issues or refine communication. While many horses thrive in this bit for long-term use, some riders may use it temporarily for correctional purposes before transitioning to a higher-level Myler bit.
