As a specialized global manufacturer of premium equestrian hardware, we produce precision-engineered Icelandic Horse Bits tailored specifically for the unique anatomical and biomechanical requirements of the Icelandic horse. Designed for wholesale distributors, specialized tack shops, and equestrian brands across Scandinavia, Europe, the USA, and the UK, our Icelandic hardware provides the precise communication and leverage necessary to support the breed's signature gaits: the tölt and the flying pace.
The Icelandic horse community is a highly dedicated, fast-growing niche that requires specialized equipment. Standard pony or warmblood bits often fail to provide the correct action or fit. By stocking expertly manufactured Icelandic bits, your retail business captures a loyal demographic looking for hardware that enhances their horse's natural gaits:
Gait-Specific Leverage: Icelandic curb bits feature specifically angled and weighted shanks designed to encourage the horse to elevate its forehand and free its shoulders, which is biomechanically essential for a clean, expressive tölt.
Proportionate Sizing & Palate Comfort: Icelandic horses typically have low palates and thick fleshy tongues but require smaller widths (commonly 10.5cm to 11.5cm / 4.25" to 4.5"). Our mouthpieces are scaled precisely for this anatomy without adding unnecessary bulk.
Salivation-Promoting Metals: Sweet iron and copper alloys are overwhelmingly preferred in the Icelandic riding community. These oxidizing materials naturally encourage a softer mouth and better bit acceptance during high-energy gaits.
Manufactured in our state-of-the-art Sialkot facility using premium materials, this specialized line is a high-demand segment of our complete premium horse bits catalog. Our wholesale Icelandic selection includes:
Classic Icelandic Curb Bits: Featuring both short and long elegantly curved shanks. Available with traditional straight bar, single-jointed, or double-jointed mouthpieces to provide precise poll and chin pressure.
Icelandic Snaffles (Loose Ring & D-Ring): High-quality snaffles crafted in sweet iron or copper, perfect for starting young horses or for riders preferring direct action without leverage.
Anatomical Lozenge & French Links: Double-jointed configurations designed to lie flat across the tongue, relieving the nutcracker effect and providing superior comfort for sensitive horses.
To supply your clients with a complete setup, complement your hardware orders with our specialized leather wholesale horse accessories, including drop nosebands and traditional Icelandic headstalls.

Why use a specific Icelandic bit instead of a standard curb or Pelham?
Icelandic bits are uniquely weighted and angled to support the specific head and neck carriage required for the tölt. A standard Pelham or curb bit often applies leverage at an incorrect angle for this breed, which can disrupt the horse's balance and stifle shoulder movement.
What sizes do you manufacture for your wholesale Icelandic bits?
We manufacture these bits in the highly specific sizes required for the breed, most commonly 4.0", 4.25", and 4.5" (10.5cm to 11.5cm). We can also accommodate custom sizing requests for your OEM orders.
Do your Icelandic curb bits come with the curb chains?
Yes. As a comprehensive B2B manufacturer, we supply our wholesale Icelandic curb bits fully equipped with perfectly proportioned stainless steel curb chains and matching hooks.
