Trust Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle Bit Double Broken 16mm 13.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt Double Broken 16mm 13.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16mm at its widest point. It is therefore a medium-strength 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 test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

The range of bits from Trust Equestrian provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt Double Broken 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt Double Broken 16mm 13.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 2.5-ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is double-jointed. The mouthpiece has a width of 13.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 13.5cm is usually ideal for smaller and normal warmbloods.

Cheek Piece

2.5-ring

Combines effective lateral restriction, leverage and lifting action in one bit, yet is usually somewhat softer than a 3-ring bit. The degree of action is chosen by the various attachment options of the rein. When buckled into the lower ring, the pulling rein exerts the action of a short lever on the bit.

Mouthpiece

double broken

Double jointed mouthpieces are suitable for many horses. This mouthpiece has two joints, is shaped more towards the mouth and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth. This bit exerts pressure on the tongue, the bars and the corners of the mouth. This bit should not be used on horses with narrow lower jaws. The hinge points can press on the bars, which can lead to sores. Compared to a single jointed bit, this bit exerts more pressure on the tongue.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
