Bit curb chain hooks

Curb chain hooks: a key element in the function of leverage bits

Curb chain hooks are the components used to attach the curb chain to the shanks of the bit. They ensure the connection between the curb chain and the bit, directly contributing to its function. They play a crucial role in both precision and safety, determining how and when the curb chain comes into action:

• The length of the curb chain
• The moment the curb chain engages
• The intensity of pressure under the lower jaw
• The correct transmission of rein aids

Each adjustment notch has a direct impact on the overall function.

A direct influence on leverage bit action

On a leverage bit (such as a curb bit or pelham), the curb chain plays a fundamental role. Curb chain hooks determine when this action is activated and how strong it is. Poor adjustment can significantly alter the function of the bit:

• Distorting the curb chain adjustment
• Modifying the bit’s action
• Creating inappropriate pressure

They must be selected and used in harmony with both the bit and the curb chain.

A holistic approach to bit fitting

At Mors And More, we pay close attention to technical details such as curb chain hooks, as they directly influence how the bit functions. They should be considered as part of a comprehensive approach, including the bit, the curb chain, and overall adjustment.

Our selection of curb chain hooks for bits allows you to optimise precision, safety, and consistency in your tack.
