Fager Walter Sweet Iron Loose Ring - 5 3/4"

The Fager Walter Loose Ring Sweet Iron bit is recommended for horses that can be described as the following:

• Stiff in the hand
• A tendency to get fixed on the bit
• On and off in the contact
• Needs more flexibility than a straight bit

Perfect for horses that have a tendency to be stiff in the hand but also sensitive. The smooth joints offer smooth pressure in the mouth. This flexible bit creates even pressure by molding around the horses mouth to help facilitate a more flexible contact for horses that can get stiff on one or both sides. Moveable in all directions, it prevents the horse from leaning or running away with the bit. 

This bit is made from sweet iron and does not lock.

Size: 5 3/4" or 145mm

Fager mouthpieces are always designed horizontally straight: none of them have a big forward bend. This is to maintain the correct balance point in the mouth. A bit with a bigger forward bend moves the balance point forward, ultimately reducing the effectiveness of the aids.

The unique design also lends protection of the bars and fleshy parts of the mouth to prevent rubs and sores, even in the most sensitive horses.
