The bit applies normal pressure on the mouth. Mouthpiece thickness 16 mm, shank length 165 mm.?

The main purpose of a full cheek bit is to exert lateral pressure, this emphasis on the turning aids is especially useful for young horses. The arms of the bit prevent the bit from being pulled through the mouth. Keepers, also known as Fulmer loops, attached to the upper arms, help stabilize the bit and offer a slight leverage action.
