Shires Loose Ring Copper Lozenge Snaffle Bit, 5.5"

Shires Loose Ring Copper Lozenge Snaffle Bit, 5.5" — Copper Lozenge, Loose Ring, 16mm Mouthpiece, Stainless Steel

The Shires Loose Ring Copper Lozenge Snaffle combines the natural movement of a loose ring with the acceptance-promoting properties of copper. The copper lozenge encourages mouthing, creates warmth, and stimulates salivation for a soft, supple mouth — horses accept copper mouthpieces more readily and stay more consistently on the contact. The loose ring discourages leaning and allows natural lateral movement for a more relaxed feel. 16mm mouthpiece thickness for a comfortable fit. 65mm cheek height. Stainless steel body with copper lozenge. 5.5" mouth width.

• Copper Lozenge — Encourages salivation and mouthing; horses accept and maintain contact more readily with copper than with steel alone; creates warmth that promotes a relaxed, soft jaw
• Loose Ring Design — Discourages leaning; allows natural lateral movement for a more relaxed, comfortable contact throughout the ride
• 16mm Mouthpiece Thickness — Comfortable diameter for most horses; thicker mouthpieces generally distribute pressure more broadly across the tongue
• 65mm Cheek Height — Balanced cheek proportion for effective, comfortable action
• Stainless Steel with Copper Insert — 5.5" — Durable, rust-resistant body; easy to clean for everyday use
