Trust Sweet Iron Full Cheek Bit flat bar 16mm 12.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Flat Bar 16mm 12.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. It is therefore a medium-strong 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-bloods and Shire Horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

When selecting 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 palate.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Flat Bar 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Flat Bar 16mm 12.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with elevator rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The bit has a size of 12.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for athletic thoroughbreds.

Cheek Piece

Elevator Bits

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 increased action. Very good for horses that tend to lean on the bit. The bit also supports the horse's natural upright posture.

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 action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed so that surface rust forms when they come into contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
