Product Description
Light, refined, and thoughtfully engineered, the Locking Waterford Balding Gag offers the trusted flexibility of a Waterford mouthpiece without the usual risks of pinching or palate pressure. Its innovative locking mechanism limits movement to a forward and backward motion only, making it an excellent option for low-palate horses.
By removing vertical play, this “punchless” design helps avoid any unpleasant pinching or collapsing that can occur in standard Waterfords. The series of smooth oval links discourages horses from bracing or leaning, as there is no rigid surface to latch onto. The locking mechanism further enhances contact, delivering a more focused mouthpiece action for accurate communication between horse and rider.
The Balding gag cheekpiece works through a sliding action that applies gentle pressure to the horse’s bars, lips and poll when rein pressure is applied. This encourages the horse to raise its head and become lighter in the forehand, making it particularly effective for horses that tend to lean or pull.
With its thoughtful balance of flexibility, lift, and precision, the Locking Waterford Balding Gag is an excellent choice for riders seeking a kinder bit for horses requiring elevation and lightness—delivering effective performance without compromising comfort.
Material: Stainless Steel
Mouth Thickness: 16mm
