The bit range from Trust Equestrian provides gentle but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Inno Sense Gag Bit Tongue Port Bar medium 20mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The Trust Inno Sense Gag Bit Tongue Port Bar medium 20mm 14.5 is made of plastic and features gag cheeks as side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The hardness of the mouthpiece material is rather medium, meaning slightly flexible. The mouthpiece has a size of 14.5 centimeters. This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for very large warmbloods.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point, making it a rather thick mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, draft horses, and Shire Horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

When choosing the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Bit material

Plastic

Food-grade plastic is used for bits, which means no plasticizers are used and it is well tolerated by horses. The particularly smooth texture ensures that the bit can glide easily in the mouth, even with little saliva production.

Manufacturer Information

Trust Equestrian

The Dutch bit manufacturer Trust Equestrian is characterized by innovation and craftsmanship. With the Inno Sense and Sweet Iron series, they are breaking new ground. The products are continuously developed by Trust's technical teams and strictly quality-controlled.

Mouthpiece

Bar bits

A bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A bar mouthpiece has a sharper action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Cheekpiece

Gag bit

The gag bit combines the effect of a gag and a full cheek snaffle. The full cheek snaffle guides the horse laterally and provides stability, and it also prevents the bit rings from sliding through. The gag is connected to the bridle via gag cheeks that are pulled through the bit rings. This creates a leveraged action depending on the degree of rein engagement.
