Fager Mats Sweet Iron
Fager Mats Sweet Iron – Double Jointed Bit
For sensitive horses that need more comfort and clarity.
Do you recognize your horse in this?
Irregular in contact?
Sensitive, yet stiff or heavy in the hand?
Does the bit release easily or does it chew nervously?
Does the bit only accept for short periods?
Then Fager Mats is the solution! This bit is the dressage-approved version of the popular Fager Claudia bit and was specially designed for sensitive horses with complex mouth anatomy —for example, a low palate and a wide tongue.
✅ Why choose Fager Mats?
✔️ Sweet Iron material
– Oxidizes during use, giving off a sweet taste that promotes salivation and increases acceptance
– Ideal for horses that find contact difficult or like to 'drop' the bit
✔️ Double-jointed, anatomical design
– Breaks outward, away from the center of the tongue
– Less pressure on sensitive areas, no palate interference
– Natural, relaxed position in the mouth
✔️ Perfect for difficult-fitting mouths
– Even fits horses with a large tongue and low palate , a combination that often causes problems with standard bits
– Improves stability and provides a more consistent contact feel
Technical specifications:
• Type : Double jointed snaffle
• Material : Sweet Iron (oxidizes for increased saliva production)
• Shape : Anatomical, tongue-free, suitable for sensitive mouths
• Approved for dressage : ✅ Yes
Fager Mats is loved by riders seeking peace, harmony and performance – even with the most sensitive horses.
Comfort and stability in one elegant design
Highly recommended for horses that often “don't seem to tolerate anything”
Experience the difference. Give your horse the comfort it deserves.
