Product description
A Simple Ring Snaffle Sized for Ponies
Best for: Pony owners looking for a simple nickel plated ring snaffle with a 4 1/2" mouth and rings in proportion to a smaller head.
The Weaver Leather Nickel Plated Steel Pony Ring Snaffle Bit has a 4 1/2" mouth and 1 3/4" rings, a size made for ponies. The nickel plated finish gives it a bright, clean look on a pony bridle.
As a ring snaffle, it works without shanks or curb leverage. The rein acts directly on the mouth, which keeps your signals simple to read. That is a big reason riders reach for a snaffle when they are starting a young pony or putting a child up on a schoolmaster pony.
Getting the width right matters more on a small mouth than a big one. A bit that is too wide slides side to side, and one that is too narrow pinches at the corners. Take a minute to measure before you order, and check the fit again once the bridle is adjusted.
Why Riders Choose the Weaver Pony Ring Snaffle
- 4 1/2" mouth — sized for ponies
- 1 3/4" rings — in proportion to a smaller head
- Ring snaffle — direct rein action with no curb leverage
- Nickel plated — a bright silver finish

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I check that 4 1/2" is the right width for my pony?
Lay a piece of string or a bit measure across the mouth where the bit sits, mark both corners and measure between the marks. The Weaver Leather Pony Ring Snaffle Bit should leave a little room on each side so the rings do not pinch.
Q: Is a ring snaffle a good choice for a green pony?
A snaffle works on direct rein pressure without curb leverage, which is why many riders start young ponies in one. Ask your trainer if you are not sure what your pony needs.
