Vortex “Pletcher” Teardrop Loose Ring Snaffle
Loose ring snaffle with an ergonomic, teardrop-shaped copper-based alloy mouthpiece designed to follow the natural contours of the tongue.
The Pletcher teardrop mouthpiece is flatter, thinner, and more ergonomic than traditional designs, providing extra tongue space and reducing pressure points for horses with thick tongues or low palates. The copper-based alloy warms quickly in the mouth and naturally stimulates salivation, improving comfort and bit acceptance.
The loose ring design allows the bit to move freely in the mouth, encouraging the horse to relax its jaw and accept the bit more willingly. The linked centre joint prevents the bit from folding sharply, while the articulated design allows each side to move independently, resulting in clear, precise rein aids.
Ideal for horses and ponies that:
✔ Require extra tongue room
✔ Resist single-jointed bits
✔ Lean or brace against the hand
