Myler Stainless Steel 3-Ring Combination Bit
MB 41PB Correctional Ported Barrel
Level 2-3
The MB 41PB is a truly unique Myler mouthpiece. This mouthpiece is a correctional mouthpiece, a ported mouthpiece that collapses on to the
outer lip and bars, and rotates on to the tongue. The port has a tiered design; the base is generously wide with rounded corners, offering
virtually the same comfort and tongue relief of a Level 3 mouthpiece, while the top is narrower and has pronounced corners. If the horse is
relaxed, the tongue can pass comfortably under the wide opening. When the reins are engaged, the mouthpiece collapses on to the bars and
lips and rotates on to the tongue. The pronounced corners of the port apply two points of pressure on the tongue for increased control. The
result is a mouthpiece that offers maximum tongue relief for the horse, but very good control for the rider. The unique design and the
generous tongue relief of the MB 41PB make it the only correctional that can be used long term, possibly even as a horse’s finishing bit.
Sweet iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation.
- Independent Side Movement
- Sweet Iron Mouthpiece
- Curved Mouthpiece
- Copper Inlay
Notes: The MB 41PB used with Western cheek pieces is 1 ¼" high. When used with English cheek pieces and the Combination Bit, it is ¾" high.
For the same tongue relief see the MB 05, for a non-correctional mouthpiece with the same tongue relief, see the MB 33. For slightly more
tongue pressure, see the MB 43LP. For quicker tongue pressure and less tongue relief, see the correctional MB 27PB.
The 6" stainless steel 3-ring combination bit is a hybrid of a ring bit, shank bit, and hackamore and uses five different pressure points to
disperse rein pressure. Because the noseband and chin strap are connected through the purchase, when the reins are engaged, the horse first
feels nose, chin and poll pressure before he feels the mouthpiece. The mouthpiece can slide 1" before reaching a stop, where it will then
engage and apply pressure. The purpose is to give the horse an opportunity to respond to the rider’s rein signals before applying mouthpiece
pressure. The combination bit has Independent Swivel Cheek and the purchase is slightly angled away from the cheek to prevent rubbing. The
noseband is flat leather with knotted cord on either side and the chin strap is synthetic to avoid stretching over time.
Action: Indirect
Discipline: English or Western
Degree of Leverage: The 3-ring combination bit offers three different rein positions: the big ring, middle ring and bottom ring.
- Big Ring = No leverage
- Middle Ring = Mild
- Bottom Ring = Mild
Notes: If you ride with your rein attached to the big ring, it will function only as a direct rein snaffle and not apply nose, chin, poll
pressure as a combination bit.
