Trust Sweet Iron Dr. Bristol Snaffle with Copper Plate Olive Head 16mm 14.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Olive Head Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 14.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point. So it's more of a thick mouthpiece.

Comparison values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold bloods and Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.

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.

The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of the bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Elevator Olive Head Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The Trust Sweet Iron Elevator Olive Head Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 14.5 bit is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with elevator olive head rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a Dr. Bristol, meaning a plate as the center piece of a double jointed mouthpiece. The mouthpiece has a size of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit thickness

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

Cheekpiece

Elevator bit with olive head rings

This bit combines the advantages of an olive head bit and an elevator bit. The olive head ring provides more lateral stability in the horse's mouth. The Trust Sweet Iron Elevator Olive Head Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 14.5 can be ridden with one or two reins, like any elevator bit.

Mouthpiece

Dr. Bristol

The Dr. Bristol mouthpiece is a double jointed mouthpiece with a flat center piece. The center plate in a Dr. Bristol is angled and flat-edged. It acts mainly on the tongue with a sharp action due to the straight, angled plate and with a lesser angle on the bars. This mouthpiece helps with strong horses.

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 accept Sweet Iron bits well.
