The port is narrower than a Level 3 mouthpiece, but still offers room for the horse’s tongue to pass under the bit. Because the port is narrow, when the reins are engaged, the horse will feel a slight pressure on the outside edges of the tongue — a gentle reminder rather than a strong reprimand. The port on this mouthpiece is only 1 ¼\" high, so it will apply little to no palate pressure. It is the mildest of the Level 2-3 mouthpieces in terms of tongue pressure, just one step below a Level 3 mouthpiece. Sweet iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependent Side Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSweet Iron mouthpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurved Mouthpiece does not pinch lips and bars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper Inlay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack shank will discolor over time to an antique brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless Steel Dots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes: \u003c\/strong\u003eFor more tongue pressure, see the MB 27LP, MB 27PB or the MB 41PB. For more tongue relief, see the MB 43MP. For the same benefits but with some palate pressure, see the MB 43HP. For the correctional version of this mouthpiece, see the MB 47 or MB 47PB. For the Level 3 version of this mouthpiece but no Independent Side Movement, see the MB 12 or MB 98. The Black Steel Seven Shank is a length of round black steel in a “7” curve, with a ring purchase and a rein ring. The mouthpiece is fixed to the cheek with a decorative “stack.” The entire shank moves independently of the mouthpiece. The purchase is slightly angled away from the cheek to avoid rubbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 ¾\" shank\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indirect\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiscipline:\u003c\/strong\u003e Western\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDegree of Leverage: \u003c\/strong\u003eMild to Moderate\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Town \u0026 Country Western Wear","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48381284778196,"sku":null,"price":179.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/1222\/7284\/files\/0005913_black-steel-seven-shank-with-narrow-low-ported-barrel-mb-43lp.jpg?v=1785280499","url":"https:\/\/townandcountrywesternwear.com\/products\/black-steel-seven-shank-with-narrow-low-ported-barrel-mb-43lp-89-13435","provider":"Town \u0026 Country Western Wear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
