Rubber Cheeker - Set

Rubber Cheeker

The Zilco Rubber Cheeker Set holds the bit high in the horse's mouth to help prevent the horse getting its tongue over the bit, and comes complete with a buckle piece for the bridle.

Sometimes called an "Australian Noseband", the rubber cheeker is most commonly seen in racing but is suitable for all areas of equestrian sport. Like the elastic bit lifter, it is designed to hold the bit high in the horse's mouth to prevent the horse getting its tongue over the bit.

Added Protection

The rubber rings sit between the bit rings and the horse's mouth, so this model also:

• Prevents the bit from pulling through the mouth
• Prevents pinching by the bit rings

Ideal For

• Racing
• Horses that get their tongue over the bit
• All areas of equestrian sport

Key Features

Fit & Care

Placing the cheeker in the sun or in heated water may help warm the rubber and make it more pliable for fitting to larger-ringed bits.

This set comes complete with a buckle piece that attaches to the bridle headpiece at the poll and provides adjustment when fitting.

Check tack regularly for wear.
