Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle French Link Copper Plate

Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle French Link Copper Plate

The bit is 20mm thick, measured at its thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. It is therefore a rather thick 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-blooded horses, and Shire Horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

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.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and manufactured from the best materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle French Link Copper Plate from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle French Link Copper Plate is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 3-ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a French Link, which is an eight-shaped plate as the center piece of a double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Thickness

Cheekpiece

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 various rein attachment options. When attached to the lower ring, the pulling 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 is a double-jointed mouthpiece with an eight-shaped plate in the middle, which applies even pressure to the tongue. This mouthpiece is double-jointed, shaped more towards the mouth, and sits a little looser in the horse's mouth.

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.
