Shires French Link Loose Ring Snaffle Offering a simple bit perfect for those that tend to lean or those that require a little bit more pressure on the tongue. Made from stainless steel, the Shires Jointed Mouth Loose Ring Snaffle provides a durable, tasteless bit that is not rust and provides an easy to clean surface. The double jointed bit reduces the risk of the nutcracker action found in single bits and ensures pressure is more evenly disturbed throughout the mouth.
