This Dutch gag has a Waterford mouth made of many different links which makes it hard for the horse to take hold of and pull against it. The gag cheeks add leverage. This can be a severe bit. The 5″ and smaller sizes of this bit come with shorter cheeks to ensure the bit remains in proportion with the smaller head. Mouthpiece thickness: 18mm. Cheek height: 150mm (4.5″, 5″), 180mm (5.5″, 6″). Stainless steel is the most common material for bits. Durable, easy to clean, tasteless and does not rust.
