Product description
Trust Sweet Iron Gag Snaffle Olive Head Straight Bar 16mm 14.5
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. This makes it a moderately thick mouthpiece.
Comparison values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-bloods and Shires Horses rather 18mm and larger.
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.
The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and effectiveness of bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Gag Snaffle Olive Head Straight Bar 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:
The Trust Sweet Iron Gag Snaffle Olive Head Straight Bar 16mm 14.5 bit is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with gag olive head rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The mouthpiece has a mouthpiece size of 14.5 centimeters.
Bit thickness
The 14.5cm mouthpiece size is usually ideal for very large warmbloods.
Cheek piece
Gag snaffle with olive head rings
This bit combines the advantages of an olive head bit and a gag snaffle. The olive head ring provides more lateral stability in the horse's mouth. The Trust Sweet Iron Gag Snaffle Olive Head Straight Bar 16mm 14.5 can be ridden with one or two reins, like any gag snaffle.
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 action 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.
