The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16mm at its widest point. It is therefore a medium-strength mouthpiece.

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 greatest care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Double Jointed with Copper Rings 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Double Jointed with Copper Rings 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Elevator Bit Rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed. The bit has a size of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit thickness

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

Cheekpiece

Elevator bit

The elevator bit can be ridden with two reins. The second rein, with increased pressure, causes the bit to tilt and pull up in the corner of the mouth. This means a stronger action. Very good for horses that tend to lean on the bit. Also usable for horses to achieve increased collection.

Mouthpiece

Double jointed

Double jointed mouthpieces are suitable for many horses. This mouthpiece has two hinges, is more shaped towards the mouth and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth. This bit exerts pressure on the tongue, the bars and the corners of the mouth. The bit should not be used on horses with narrow lower jaws. The hinge points can press on the bars, which can lead to wounds. The double jointed bit exerts more pressure on the tongue compared to single jointed bits.

Bit material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
