Trust Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle Bit with Rollers 16mm 12.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 12.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point, making it 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 choosing the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical features of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Bits from Trust Equestrian are selected with the utmost care and manufactured from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 12.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 3-ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is single-jointed. The bit has a mouthpiece size of 12.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size of 12.5cm is usually ideal for Thoroughbreds.

Cheeks

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 attachment options of the reins. When buckled into the lower ring, the giving 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

single-jointed

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron 2.5-Ring Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 12.5 has a joint in the middle, which puts less pressure on the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and the sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. A single-jointed mouthpiece is an absolute standard mouthpiece and very common.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Trust's 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 readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
