Loose Ring with Mullen with Low Ported Barrel MB 06

Myler Stainless Steel Loose Ring, MB 06 Mullen with Low Ported Barrel, Level 2-3

The MB 06 is a Myler alternative to the traditional mullen, but it has a wide low port that allows the tongue to pass under it comfortably. The port is ¾" high, just enough to allow the horse’s tongue to elevate slightly and swallow but not high enough for palate pressure. When the reins are engaged, the 06 applies pressure primarily to the bars and lips.

Notes: This mouthpiece is a step up in tongue relief from Level 2, but because the port is low, it does not offer as much tongue relief as other Level 2-3 mouthpieces with slightly higher ports because the tongue is still somewhat restricted. The MB 36 mouthpiece will offer more tongue relief than the MB 06 when the reins are relaxed but more tongue pressure when the reins are engaged. The loose ring is a simple stainless steel "O" shape where both the bridle and mouthpiece have no fixed point of attachment but slide freely around the ring. The loose ring allows a lot of play as the mouthpiece slides freely around the ring.
