Myler HBT Shank Low Port Comfort Snaffle MB 04 — 5" Sweet Iron, Level 2, Independent Swivel Cheek

The Myler MB 04 Low Port Comfort Snaffle on the 5" HBT Shank is a Level 2 bit designed as an excellent transition from Level 1 to Level 2 across a wide range of horses. The curved mouthpiece wraps around the bars and lips rather than pinching; a 1/4" port introduces tongue relief and allows the horse to swallow and move his tongue as a release when moving forward and relaxed; sweet iron oxidizes naturally to encourage salivation. The HBT Shank features Myler's patented Independent Swivel Cheek where the purchase, mouthpiece, and shank all move independently for nuanced communication. Available in 4 3/4" and 5" mouthpiece widths.

  • MB 04 Low Port Comfort Snaffle — 1/4" Port for Tongue Relief — Rotates onto the tongue with tongue pressure, but the 1/4" port introduces relief and allows the horse to swallow when relaxed — providing a built-in release that rewards forward, relaxed movement
  • Curved Mouthpiece — Non-Pinching Design — Curves wrap around bars and lips rather than applying direct bar pressure at the joint; a more comfortable everyday contact than a traditional single-jointed snaffle
  • HBT Shank — Patented Independent Swivel Cheek — Purchase, mouthpiece, and shank all move independently; slightly curved back, flat-top purchase with rein ring; purchase angled away from cheek to prevent rubbing; uses curb strap for chin and poll pressure
  • Sweet Iron with Copper Inlay — Sweet iron oxidizes to encourage salivation; copper inlay adds consistent salivation response for willing, relaxed bit acceptance
  • Level 2 Transition Bit — Suitable for green horses, experienced horses entering the Myler System, horses ridden exclusively in single-jointed mouthpieces, or horses needing re-schooling
