Myler MB36 Loose Ring Snaffle Bit - Forward Tilted Port, Level 2-3, Copper Inlay, Dressage Legal

Transform your horse’s responsiveness and comfort with a bit designed to eliminate tongue pressure and encourage a softer, more consistent contact. The Myler MB36 is the ultimate solution for horses with low palates or sensitive tongues who need a sophisticated tool for clearer communication and total relaxation.

Crafted from premium stainless steel with integrated copper inlays, the MB36 features Myler’s signature curved mouthpiece that distributes pressure evenly while promoting natural salivation. The innovative forward-tilted port is engineered to provide maximum tongue relief when the horse is relaxed, only engaging when a rein signal is given to guide the horse into a more collected, harmonious frame without the harshness of a traditional jointed bit.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Forward Tilted Port (MB36): Features a 1/4" (approx. 14mm) port tilted at a 45-degree angle to provide significant tongue relief while preventing the bit from hitting the roof of the mouth, making it ideal for horses with low palates.
• Myler Level 2-3 Mouthpiece: Specifically designed for horses with basic training or those showing resistance to Level 2 bits, offering a sophisticated balance of tongue relief and gentle bar pressure.
• Copper Inlay Mouthpiece: Thoughtfully integrated to promote salivation and enhance bit acceptance, ensuring a moist and responsive mouth throughout your ride.
• Loose Ring Design: Offers an immediate release of pressure when the rider softens the reins, which discourages leaning and encourages the horse to develop better self-carriage and a lighter contact.
• USEF & FEI Dressage Legal: Fully approved for competitive use in sanctioned dressage events, providing a legal and effective "comfort snaffle" option for the show ring.
• Precision Sizing Buffer: Engineered to measure 1/8" to 1/4" larger than the stated size to allow for the signature "Myler fit," ensuring the mouthpiece wraps comfortably around the lips without pinching.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for the Myler MB36?
A: Myler bits are designed with a built-in 1/8" to 1/4" buffer. When selecting your size, choose the measurement that allows for this slight overhang on either side of the mouth, which ensures the mouthpiece curves correctly around the lips for maximum comfort and prevents the rings from rubbing.

Q: Why is the forward-tilted port better for horses with low palates?
A: Traditional ports can sometimes rotate upward and contact the sensitive roof of the mouth. The MB36’s 45-degree forward tilt ensures the port sits flat and low when the horse is relaxed, providing tongue relief without the risk of palate interference.

Q: Is this bit suitable for a horse that leans on the hand?
A: Yes! The combination of the loose ring design and the MB36 mouthpiece provides a quick release of pressure. This helps "reset" the horse’s mouth, discouraging them from leaning on the bit and encouraging them to seek a softer, more independent frame.
