5.25″ Myler HBT Short Shank Medium Ported Barrel Curb

Very good used 5.25″ HBT Short Shank with Sweet Iron Sweet, Medium Narrow ported Curb (MB 43MP, Level 2/3) with Copper Inlays. This mouthpiece is made of polished Sweet Iron which naturally oxidizes or rusts. Harmless to horses, it has a sweet taste and promotes salivation. The mouth is sweet iron, so does rust to offer a pleasant sweet taste for the horse. Very good used, mouth has started to rust. This one offers a slightly narrower port that the MB33, while still offering tongue relief.

Per Myler: The MB 43MP does not rotate onto the tongue but instead sits solidly across the bars and lips of the horse’s mouth. The port is narrower than a Level 3 mouthpiece but still offers room for the horse’s tongue to pass under the bit. Because the port is narrow, when the reins are engaged, the horse will feel a slight pressure on the outside edges of the tongue — a gentle reminder rather than a strong reprimand. The port on this mouthpiece is only 1 ½” high, so it will apply little to no palate pressure. The MB 43MP is the mildest of the Level Two-Three mouthpieces in terms of tongue pressure, just one step below a Level 3 mouthpiece. Sweet Iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation.
