The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Inno Sense Hackamore Combination Short Tongue Port Bar Medium 20mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:
The Trust Bit Inno Sense Hackamore Combination Short Tongue Port Bar Medium 20mm 13.5 is made of plastic and equipped with hackamore shanks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The hardness of the mouthpiece material is rather medium, meaning it is slightly flexible. The bit has a width of 13.5 centimeters. This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for a normal warmblood.
Bit thickness
The bit is 20mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the horse's lip area. This makes 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 need 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, meaning 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 salivation.

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 effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.
Cheekpiece
Hackamore
The hackamore is a bitless bridle that focuses its action on the bridge of the nose. In addition, when the reins are taken up, it also acts on the poll and chin groove.
