Bit Thickness

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the area of the horse's commissure of the lips. It is therefore a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-blooded horses and Shires Horses rather 18mm and larger.

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 palate.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Trust 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.

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.

Cheekpiece

Elevator Gag with Olive Head Rings

This bit combines the advantages of an olive head bit and an elevator gag. The olive head ring provides more lateral stability in the horse's mouth. The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Gag Olive Head High Port 16mm 11.5 can be ridden with one or two reins like any elevator gag.
