Trust Bit Sweet Iron 3-Ring Gag Snaffle Medium Port

Trust Sweet Iron 3-Ring Snaffle with Medium Bar

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. So it is a medium-strong mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is more like 10mm to 14mm. Very large warmbloods, draft horses, and Shire Horses usually need 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 conditions of the horse's mouth. You can test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the best materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron 3-Ring Snaffle with Medium Bar from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The Trust Sweet Iron 3-Ring Snaffle with Medium Bar is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 3-ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar.

Bit Thickness

Cheek 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 in the lower ring, the taking 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

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed to develop surface rust when exposed to air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore accept Sweet Iron bits well.
