Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Olive Head Snaffle Medium Bar

Trust Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Olive Head Snaffle Bit, Medium Bar

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. So it is a moderately strong mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold-bloods, and Shire horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

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

The Trust Equestrian bit range provides gentle but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. Today we would like to present the Trust Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Olive Head Snaffle Bit, Medium Bar from the Trust Equestrian range in a little more detail:

The bit Trust Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Olive Head Snaffle Bit, Medium Bar is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 2.5-ring side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar.

Bit Thickness

Side Piece

2.5-Ring

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

Mouthpiece

Straight Bar Bits

A straight bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A straight bar mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed to develop surface rust when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
