When selecting 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 greatest care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Elevator Bar 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Elevator Bar 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with full cheeks as side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The mouthpiece has a size of 14.5 centimeters.
Bit thickness
This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for very large warmbloods.
Side piece
Full Cheek Elevator Bit
The full cheek elevator bit is a combination of an elevator bit and a full cheek bit. The full cheek bit limits the horse laterally and gives it stability, and it also prevents the bit rings from slipping through. The elevator bit is connected to the bridle via elevator cheek pieces, which are pulled through the bit rings. This achieves a leveraged action depending on the degree of rein uptake.
Mouthpiece
Bar Bits
A bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A bar mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.
Bit material
Sweet Iron
Trust Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits were 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.
