The 5-1/8″ Hilason Brown Steel Horse Gag Bit is a performance-oriented piece of tack designed for horses that need increased control during riding. The 5-1/8″ mouthpiece fits comfortably in the horse’s mouth, suitable for medium to larger-sized horses.

The bit is made from brown steel, which is highly durable, offering long-lasting use while resisting rust and corrosion. This makes it an excellent option for riders who frequently engage in high-energy equestrian activities and need equipment that can withstand regular wear and tear.

The gag bit design is specifically intended to provide additional leverage. As the reins are pulled, the gag bit mechanism causes the mouthpiece to slide upward, encouraging the horse to raise its head. This lifting action helps to engage the horse’s front end, making it easier for the rider to control speed, direction, and head carriage. Gag bits are commonly used in disciplines such as barrel racing, reining, and other events where rapid changes in speed and direction are required.
