Myler Flat Shank Medium Wide Ported Barrel MB 33, 5"

Myler Flat Shank Medium Wide Ported Barrel MB 33, 5" — Sweet Iron, 7" Flat Shank, Level 3, Independent Swivel Cheek

The Myler MB 33 Medium Wide Ported Barrel on the 7" Flat Shank is Myler's mildest mouthpiece in terms of tongue pressure — a Level 3 bit for horses with a trustworthy, consistent disposition who are trained to work off the leg and seat. The wide port allows the tongue to pass almost completely under the bit; because the mouthpiece does not rotate onto the tongue and the port is wide, it applies little to no tongue pressure, working primarily off the lips and bars; the 1 1/2" port height means minimal palate pressure. Sweet iron oxidizes to encourage salivation. The Flat Shank features Independent Swivel Cheek where purchase, mouthpiece, and shank all move independently.

• MB 33 Wide Port — Minimal Tongue Pressure — The generously wide port allows the tongue to pass almost completely under the bit; because the mouthpiece does not rotate onto the tongue, it works primarily off the lips and bars with little to no tongue pressure — the mildest Myler mouthpiece
• 1 1/2" Port Height — Minimal Palate Pressure — Low port height means the bit applies little to no palate pressure, appropriate for horses with a high palate or those who resist higher port contact
• 7" Flat Shank — Patented Independent Swivel Cheek — Stainless steel flat shank curved slightly back; purchase, mouthpiece, and shank all move independently; indirect curb action for use with a curb strap; applies pressure to mouth, chin, and poll
• Sweet Iron with Copper Inlay — Oxidizes naturally to encourage salivation; copper inlay adds consistent salivation response
• Level 3 — Advanced, Finished Horses — For horses with trustworthy disposition trained to work off leg and seat; the wide tongue relief requires a horse that does not rely on mouth pressure for direction and control
