Questions & answers
What mouthpiece size do I need?
Answered by The Connected RiderMost horses take a 5″ mouthpiece. Arabians and smaller horses often need 4 3/4″, and big-headed horses 5 1/4″ to 5 1/2″. Measure across the mouth at the corners, or check the size stamped on your current bit.
Why sweet iron and copper?
Answered by The Connected RiderSweet iron oxidizes to a warm, sweet taste and copper encourages salivation, which helps a horse accept and soften to the bit. Light rust on sweet iron is normal and part of how it works.

A good fit
- Width: about 1/4" of mouthpiece should show on each side of the mouth. Measure across the mouth at the corners, or check the size on a bit that fits now.
- Height: adjust the headstall so the bit makes one or two soft wrinkles at the corners of the mouth.
- Curb strap: fit two fingers between the strap and the chin. It should engage when the shanks rotate back about 45 degrees.
- Leverage: longer shanks and a longer purchase give more leverage, so match the bit to your horse's training.
