J.I.C. Bit

The J.I.C. bit is a long-standing favourite among teamsters and drivers who need dependable stopping power and steady communication. Its extended cheeks provide increased leverage, making it especially useful for stronger or harder-to-hold horses.
Available in stainless steel in 5", 6", 8", and 10", plus a nickel-plated option in 4.5". The 8" and 10" sizes deliver noticeably more authority, making them ideal when you need extra control without resorting to harsher mouthpieces.
Despite the leverage, the J.I.C. still offers a smooth, clear feel on the lines—reliable, predictable, and trusted by generations of drivers.
