Design: Gag bits typically have a sliding action on the cheek pieces, which allows the bit to move up and down in the horse’s mouth when pressure is applied to the reins. This sliding action increases leverage and encourages the horse to lift its head.
Mouthpiece: The mouthpiece can vary widely, including straight bars, jointed (single or double), twisted wire, or even roller types. The choice of mouthpiece affects the bit’s severity and the type of pressure applied.
Cheek Pieces: The cheek pieces on gag bits can range from simple ring gags to more complex designs with shanks or multiple rings, providing varying levels of leverage.
Materials: Commonly made from stainless steel, sweet iron, copper, or a combination. The materials can influence how the bit feels in the horse’s mouth and its durability.
Size:
Mouthpiece Width: 4.5 inches to 5.5 inches,
Cheek Length: Between 5.0 to 8.5 inches, depending on the desired amount of leverage and control.
