The Trust Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt Bradoon Medium Bar 16mm 11.5 bit is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 2.5 ring cheek pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The mouthpiece has a mouthpiece size of 11.5 centimeters. The 11.5cm mouthpiece size is usually ideal for Thoroughbreds.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest 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 test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Bit material

Sweet Iron

Trust Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits were developed in such a way that surface rust forms when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept the Sweet Iron bits.

Manufacturer information

Trust Equestrian

The Dutch bit manufacturer Trust Equestrian is characterized by innovation and craftsmanship. With the Inno Sense and Sweet Iron series, they are breaking new ground. The products are constantly being developed further by Trust's technical teams and strictly quality-controlled.

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.

Cheek piece

2.5-Ring

A 2.5-ring bit allows for flexible rein attachment, which results in varying degrees of leverage. The deeper the reins are attached, the greater the effect on the bit and the horse's poll. With the 2.5-ring bit, the lower ring is embedded in the main ring.
