Trust Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Loose Ring Snaffle Single Jointed 16mm 12.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt Snaffle Single Jointed 16mm 12.5

The bit is 20mm thick, measured at the thickest part in the area of the horse's lips. So it is a rather thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm, and particularly large warmbloods, draft horses, and Shires 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 test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

The range of bits from Trust Equestrian provides gentle but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt Snaffle Single Jointed 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

Bit Thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for athletic thoroughbreds.

Cheekpiece

2.5-Ring

A 2.5-ring bit allows for flexible rein attachment, achieving various degrees of leverage. The lower the reins are attached, the greater the effect on the bit and the horse's poll. With a 2.5-ring bit, the lower ring is recessed into the main ring.

Mouthpiece

single jointed

A single jointed bit has one hinge point, which applies less pressure to the tongue than a double jointed mouthpiece. A single jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. The single jointed mouthpiece is the most popular mouthpiece on the market.

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.
