Trust Sweet Iron Dee Bit with French Link and High Port 16mm 11.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Olive Head Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 11.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. So it is a rather medium-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, draft 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 features of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test 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. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Olive Head Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 11.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in a little more detail today:

Bit thickness

This mouthpiece size is usually well suited for athletic thoroughbreds.

Cheek piece

Elevator bit with olive head rings

The bit is a combination of an elevator bit and an olive head bit, brought together to leverage the advantages of both types of bits. The olive head ring provides more lateral stability in the horse's mouth. The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Olive Head Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 11.5 can be ridden with one or two reins, like any elevator bit.

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 effect than a single jointed or double jointed mouthpiece.

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.
