Product description
Trust Bit Leather Straight Bar Hackamore Combination Long Straight 20mm 11.5
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20 millimeters at its widest point. It is therefore a rather thick mouthpiece.
Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-bloods and Shire horses rather 18mm and larger.
When selecting 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.
The Trust Equestrian team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and effectiveness of bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Leather Straight Bar Hackamore Combination Long Straight 20mm 11.5 from the Trust Equestrian range today:
The bit Trust Bit Leather Straight Bar Hackamore Combination Long Straight 20mm 11.5 is made of leather and equipped with Hackamore shanks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The bit has a size of 11.5 centimeters.
Bit thickness
The mouthpiece size 11.5cm is usually ideal for thoroughbreds.
Cheekpiece
Hackamore
The hackamore is a bitless bridle that focuses its effect on the bridge of the nose. In addition, when the reins are taken up, it also acts on the poll and chin groove.
Mouthpiece
Straight Bar Bits
A straight bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A straight bar mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.
Bit material
Leather
The acceptance of leather bits is exceptionally high. Almost every horse likes the softness and taste of leather. Leather is a purely natural product; it stimulates chewing activity and also salivation. The bit slides easily in the mouth, thereby increasing well-being. Leather mouthpieces are usually vegetable-tanned and hand-stitched.
Our leather mouthpiece is particularly suitable for young and extremely sensitive horses. Even horses that are completely resistant to bits usually readily accept a leather bit and can relearn to approach the bit confidently.
Care instructions for leather: The mouthpiece should be soaked in cooking oil for a few hours before first use. Repeat this process as soon as the leather appears dry. Before each use, you should briefly soak it in clear water and clean it thoroughly after use, as saliva can erode the leather.
