The mouthpiece is made of sweet iron, which is designed to oxidize (rust) when exposed to moisture. This oxidation creates a sweet taste that horses find highly palatable, encouraging them to salivate and accept the bit more readily.Q: How does the "Doublebar" design improve my horse's performance?A: The four moving parts allow you to give independent cues to either side of the mouth. This helps you "pick up" a specific shoulder or correct a head tilt with precision, fostering a more disciplined and balanced equine athlete.Item Number/SKU: PCB-910
