Description
The Korsteel Fulmer Snaffle is a single jointed, loose ring snaffle bit made from stainless steel. Available in sizes 4.5, 5 and 5.5 inches, it combines the cheek pressure of a full cheek bit with the movement of a loose ring, making it particularly suited to young and green horses.
- Single jointed mouthpiece with a nutcracker action working on the tongue, bars of the mouth and potentially the palate
- Fulmer design - a variation of the full cheek with loose rings - provides added cheek pressure to aid steering and prevent the bit being pulled through the horse's mouth
- Loose ring style encourages horses that lean on the rein, as the rings allow more movement than a fixed cheek bit, making it harder for the horse to lean and grab hold
- Applies positive pressure on the horse's cheeks to assist with steering
- Should be used with leather keepers for security
- Made from stainless steel

Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes does the Korsteel Fulmer Snaffle come in?
The Korsteel Fulmer Snaffle is available in three sizes: 4.5, 5 and 5.5 inches.
Why is the Fulmer Snaffle recommended for young or green horses?
The Fulmer's extended cheeks apply positive pressure on the horse's cheeks to aid steering and prevent the bit from being pulled through the mouth - both useful qualities when working with young or inexperienced horses.
How does the Fulmer Snaffle differ from a standard full cheek snaffle?
The Fulmer is a variation of the full cheek but uses loose rings rather than fixed cheeks. This means it retains the cheek pressure and anti-pull-through benefits of a full cheek while also providing the additional movement of a loose ring, which can discourage horses from leaning on the rein.
Do I need to use keepers with the Korsteel Fulmer Snaffle?
Yes - the Fulmer Snaffle should be used with leather keepers for security. Keepers attach the upper cheek arms to the cheekpieces of the bridle, helping to stabilise the bit in the horse's mouth.
What material is the Korsteel Fulmer Snaffle made from?
The Korsteel Fulmer Snaffle is made from stainless steel.
