Its shanks and curb chain create leverage that refines the horse’s head carriage—reserved for a horse that is already balanced and a light hand. The straight mouthpiece acts flat against the tongue and bars, with no point of flexion. This is the classic curb-bit mouthpiece. The Ergonomic range is shaped to the anatomy of the mouth: the mouthpiece tapers toward the inside, where space is limited, to distribute pressure more evenly. It is made of \u003cem\u003esweet iron\u003c\/em\u003e, a mild steel that develops a slightly sweet taste when it comes into contact with saliva: the horse chews more, produces more foam, and accepts the bit more readily. The double-jointed versions also feature a copper insert, making them even more palatable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✨ Key features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ straight mouthpiece, 14 mm diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ shank length: 13.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ sweet iron mouthpiece: sweet taste, salivation, and chewing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ mouthpiece tapers inward to distribute pressure more evenly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ stainless steel shanks, with no free nickel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ very high corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ curb chain included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e📋 Technical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e curb bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMouthpiece:\u003c\/strong\u003e straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMouthpiece diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMouthpiece material:\u003c\/strong\u003e sweet iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShanks:\u003c\/strong\u003e stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupplied with:\u003c\/strong\u003e curb chain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🐎 Why choose this product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSweet iron is not just a catalogue claim: it is a surface designed to oxidize and develop a sweet taste when it comes into contact with saliva. A horse that finds its bit pleasant will chew, produce foam, and maintain a soft contact. The trade-off is intentional—this metal is softer than stainless steel and develops a patina quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Care instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse with clean water after each use and dry roughly. \u003cstrong\u003eDo not try to remove the bluish patina or rust spots: they are intentional\u003c\/strong\u003e; this is what gives sweet iron its sweet taste. Do not use abrasive products or a dishwasher. Sweet iron is softer than stainless steel: it shows marks more quickly, without affecting its use. Check the wear on the joints regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComposition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSweet iron mouthpiece (carbon and manganese steel), stainless steel shanks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kavalkade","offers":[{"title":"120","offer_id":58566916899151,"sku":"0708411200400","price":85.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"130","offer_id":58566916931919,"sku":"0708411300400","price":85.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"140","offer_id":58566916964687,"sku":"0708411400400","price":85.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/70841.jpg?v=1787697429","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-de-bride-ergonomic-sweet-iron-14-mm-canon-droit","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
