When selecting the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to check how much space there is between the tongue and palate.
Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the greatest care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle French Link Copper Plate 16mm 11.5 bit from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The Trust Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle French Link Copper Plate 16mm 11.5 bit is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 3-ring side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a French Link, an eight-shaped plate as the center piece of a double-jointed mouthpiece. The mouthpiece has a size of 11.5 centimeters.
Bit thickness
The mouthpiece size 11.5cm is usually ideal for thoroughbreds.
Side piece
3-Ring
The three-ring bit combines effective lateral limitation, leverage, and lifting action 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 action of a short lever on the bit. The 3-ring bit is often used to test the horse's reaction to leverage.
Mouthpiece
French Link
The French Link mouthpiece has two hinge points and an eight-shaped plate in the middle, which applies even pressure to the tongue. This mouthpiece has two hinge points, is shaped more towards the mouth, and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth.
Bit material
Sweet Iron
Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore accept Sweet Iron bits well.
