Frequently Asked Questions

What are the mouthpiece and shank sizes on this HILASON gag bit?

This HILASON gag bit features a 5 inch copper roller snaffle mouthpiece with a double-jointed dogbone link and 7 1/4 inch stainless steel gag shanks. The copper rollers are positioned on the center link to promote salivation and responsiveness during training.

Is this double jointed bit good for horses with tongue sensitivity or evasion issues?

Yes. The double-jointed dogbone link distributes pressure evenly across the tongue and bars, relieving discomfort on horses with large tongues or tongue pressure evasion. This design encourages a softer mouth and more responsive communication between rider and horse.

What riding disciplines is this gag double jointed horse bit suited for?

This gag bit is ideal for western training, correction work, ranch riding, and western pleasure disciplines. It is designed for experienced riders working on refinement, clear cues, and improved responsiveness with heavy-mouthed or resistant horses.

Is this bit rust-resistant and easy to maintain?

Yes. This bit is crafted from high-quality stainless steel that resists rust and corrosion. The smooth polished surface and simple construction make it effortless to clean. It remains in peak condition through regular use and proper maintenance.

Why do copper rollers matter on a western horse bit?

Copper rollers encourage natural salivation in the horse's mouth, promoting a softer, more responsive response to cues. The salivation helps keep the horse relaxed and engaged, improving communication during training sessions and correction work.

What makes a gag bit different from a regular snaffle bit?

A gag bit has shanks that allow the bit to rotate upward in the horse's mouth when direct pressure is applied to the reins, creating leverage and encouraging the horse to raise its head. The snaffle mouthpiece combined with gag action makes it useful for training and correction work.
