Product description
Trust Leather Bar Loose Ring Snaffle with Large Rings straight 20mm 12.5
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20 millimeters at its thickest point. So, it is rather a thick mouthpiece.
Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-blooded horses and Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.
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.
The range of bits from Trust Equestrian provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Leather Bar Loose Ring Snaffle with Large Rings straight 20mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:
The bit Trust Leather Bar Loose Ring Snaffle with Large Rings straight 20mm 12.5 is made of leather and equipped with loose ring cheeks, i.e. rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The mouthpiece has a size of 12.5 centimeters.
Bit Thickness
This mouthpiece size is usually suitable for athletic thoroughbreds.
Cheekpiece
Loose Ring Snaffle
The loose ring snaffle has two freely moving rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Leather Bar Loose Ring Snaffle with Large Rings straight 20mm 12.5 is therefore a bit for horses that prefer a more "mobile" bit in their mouth.
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.
Bit Material
Leather
Leather as a bit material is very well accepted by many horses. Virtually every horse "likes the taste" of it! Since leather is a natural product, it stimulates saliva production and chewing activity. 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 metal bits usually readily accept a leather bit and can learn to trust and approach the bit again.
Care instructions for leather: The mouthpiece should soak 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 soak it briefly in clear water and clean it thoroughly after use, as saliva can erode the leather.
