Trust Bit Sweet Iron 3-Ring Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 14.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron 3-Ring Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 14.5

The bit is 20mm thick, measured at the thickest part in the area of the horse's lips. This makes 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 conditions of the horse's mouth. You can test with your fingers 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. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron 3-Ring Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron 3-Ring Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with 3-ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is single-jointed. The mouthpiece has a size of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece size 14.5cm is normally ideal for very large warmbloods.

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 the rein is 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

single-jointed

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron 3-Ring Snaffle Roller Bit 16mm 14.5 has a joint in the middle, which exerts 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

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed 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.
