The Trust Equestrian bit range provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt Bradoon Waterford Link Mouthpiece 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Eggbutt Bradoon Waterford Link Mouthpiece 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 2.5 ring cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a Waterford or multi-jointed. The mouthpiece has a size of 14.5 centimeters. A mouthpiece size of 14.5cm is usually ideal for very large warmbloods.
Bit thickness
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point. It is therefore a rather thick mouthpiece.
Reference values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, draught horses 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 have been designed so that surface rust develops when they come into contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore accept Sweet Iron bits well.

Mouthpiece
Multi-jointed/Waterford
A multi-jointed or Waterford mouthpiece consists of a series of rounded links. It is a flexible bit that conforms to the horse's mouth and creates even pressure. It can move in all directions, making it difficult for the horse to lean on the bit, allowing the rider to maintain proper control. In soft hands, this mouthpiece is gentle and kind, but with a strong hand, the bit can be sharp.
Cheekpiece
2.5-Ring
A 2.5-ring bit allows for flexible rein attachment, which achieves different levels 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 recessed into the main ring.
