The Trust Equestrian team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Olive Head Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 11.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Olive Head Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 11.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 2.5 ring cheek pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is single jointed. The mouthpiece has a width of 11.5 centimeters. This mouthpiece size is usually suitable for athletic thoroughbreds.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point. It is therefore a rather thick mouthpiece.

Comparison 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 use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed 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.

Manufacturer Information

Trust Equestrian

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

Mouthpiece

single jointed

The single-jointed mouthpiece has a hinge in the middle, which exerts less pressure on 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.

Cheek Piece

2.5-Ring

Combines effective lateral guidance, leverage, and lift in one bit, and is usually 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 taking rein exerts the effect of a short lever on the bit.
