Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and manufactured from the most suitable materials. Today, we would like to present the Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt French Link 16mm 13.5cm from the Trust Equestrian range in a little more detail:

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt French Link 16mm 13.5cm is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 2.5 ring cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The mouthpiece has a size of 13.5 centimeters. This mouthpiece size is usually well suited for a normal warmblood.

Bit Thickness

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 choosing the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to check how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

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

Trust Equestrian

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

2.5-Ring

Combines an effective lateral limitation, leverage and lifting action in one bit, while usually being somewhat softer than a 3-ring bit. The degree of action is chosen by the different rein attachment options. When attached to the lower ring, the rein applies the effect of a short lever to the bit.
