Myler MB 47 Correctional Curb Bit - 5" Mouth, Sweet Iron with Copper Inlay, Flat Shank, Level 2-3

Transform your horse's responsiveness and eliminate resistance with the Myler MB 47 Correctional Curb Bit, the ultimate tool for achieving a soft, willing mouth. Designed for "broke" horses that need a clearer signal, this bit provides the precise leverage and comfort required to re-establish collection and refine your performance.

Crafted with the professional horseman in mind, this bit features a premium Sweet Iron mouthpiece that naturally oxidizes to create a sweet taste, encouraging salivation and a relaxed jaw. The Level 2-3 correctional design is engineered to offer a "comfort zone" when your horse is soft, but applies focused pressure to the bars and lips the moment they lean, making it the perfect choice for "tune-ups" and advanced Western disciplines where precision is non-negotiable.

Key Features & Specifications:

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the 5-inch size is the correct fit for my horse?
A: Myler bits are designed to sit slightly wider than traditional bits. For a perfect fit, you should see 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece on each side of the horse's lips, which allows the independent swivel cheeks to function correctly without pinching.

Q: What makes the MB 47 different from a standard Level 2 bit?
A: As a Level 2-3 bit, the MB 47 is more technical; it offers a distinct "comfort zone" when the horse is relaxed but applies more focused pressure to the bars and tongue when the horse resists, making it superior for refining communication in finished horses.

Q: Why does the mouthpiece look like it is rusting?
A: That is the Sweet Iron working! The oxidation process is intentional, as the resulting "rust" creates the sweet taste horses love, which promotes salivation and better bit acceptance compared to stainless steel.
