Tech Info
Black Steel 7" Seven Shank with Sweet Iron Low Port Comfort Snaffle (MB 04, Level 2) Copper Inlay. This mouthpiece is made of polished Sweet Iron which naturally oxidizes or rusts. Harmless to horses, it has a sweet taste and promotes salivation.The level 2 MB04 mouthpiece will rotate on the tongue and apply tongue pressure; however it has a slight port that allows the horse to swallow when he is moving forward and relaxed. The barrel distributes the pressure kindly on the tongue. The MB04 provides an excellent transition from level one to level two.
The seven shank cheek piece has a mild to moderate degree of leverage. The mouthpiece is fixed to the cheek with a "stack". The entire shank moves independently of the mouthpiece. The purchase is slightly angled away from the horse to avoid rubbing.
