Product description
Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit with Eggbutt and Rollers 16mm 14.5
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point, making it a rather 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, cold-blooded 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 conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to check how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.
The Trust Equestrian Team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit with Eggbutt and Rollers 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit with Eggbutt and Rollers 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with elevator eggbutt rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is single-jointed. The mouthpiece has a size of 14.5 centimeters.
Bit Thickness
This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for very large warmbloods.
Sidepiece
Elevator bit with eggbutt rings
The bit is a combination of an elevator bit and an eggbutt bit, brought together to utilize the advantages of both types of bits. The eggbutt ring provides more lateral stability in the horse's mouth. The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit with Eggbutt and Rollers 16mm 14.5 can be ridden with one or two reins, like any elevator bit.
Mouthpiece
single-jointed
A single-jointed bit has one hinge point, which puts less pressure on the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and the sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. A single-jointed mouthpiece is an absolute standard mouthpiece and very widely used.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
Trust's 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.
