Product description
Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle Flat Bar 16mm 14.5
The bit is 20mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it a rather thick mouthpiece.
Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and especially 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 test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.
The bit range from Trust Equestrian provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle Flat Bar 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:
The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle Flat Bar 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 3-ring side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The mouthpiece has a size of 14.5 centimeters.
Bit thickness
This mouthpiece size is usually well suited for very large warmbloods.
Side piece
3-Ring
The three-ring bit combines effective lateral limitation, leverage and poll pressure in one bit. The degree of action is chosen by the different rein attachment options. When attached to the lower ring, the engaging rein exerts the effect of a short lever on the bit. The 3-ring bit is often used to test the horse's reaction to leverage.
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 action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.
Bit material
Sweet Iron
Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed 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.
