Product description
Trust Sweet Iron Beval Double Broken Bit 16mm 12.5
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its widest point, making it a rather thick mouthpiece.
Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm, and particularly large warmbloods, draft horses, and Shire 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 use your fingers to check how much space there is between the tongue and palate.
The bit range from Trust Equestrian provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Beval Double Broken Bit 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The Trust Sweet Iron Beval Double Broken Bit 16mm 12.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with so-called Universal Rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is double-jointed. The bit has a width of 12.5 centimeters.
Bit Thickness
The 12.5cm mouthpiece size is usually ideal for Thoroughbreds.
Cheekpiece
Universal/Swivel
The universal bit, also called Beval or Swivel, usually has rings as cheekpieces, with internal eyelets at the top and bottom. These allow for additional attachment of cheek pieces and reins, which makes the bit very flexible. With the Beval, the mouthpiece is attached in the central axis of the ring.
Mouthpiece
double broken
The double-jointed mouthpiece is one of the most common mouthpieces on the market. This mouthpiece has two hinges, is shaped more towards the mouth, and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth. This bit applies pressure to the tongue, the bars, and the corners of the mouth. Be careful with narrow lower jaws! The joints can press on the bars with a narrow lower jaw. The double-jointed bit applies more pressure to the tongue compared to single-jointed bits.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits were 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.
