Product description
Trust Bit Sweet Iron Beval Single-Jointed Locked
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. It is therefore a medium-strength 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-bloods and Shire Horses usually need 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 features of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.
Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Beval Single-Jointed Locked from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:
The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Beval Single-Jointed Locked is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with so-called Universal Rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is locked, meaning it blocks when the reins are taken up.
Bit Thickness
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 cheekpieces and reins, which makes the bit very flexible. With the Beval, the mouthpiece is attached in a central axis of the ring.
Mouthpiece
Locked
The locked mouthpiece resembles a single-jointed mouthpiece, but cannot bend as much as a single-jointed bit. When pressure is applied to the reins, the bit locks and thus becomes a straight bar, making it a sharper bit. When less pressure is applied to the reins, the bit changes back to a single-jointed bit. This makes it an ideal bit for horses that lean against the hand. The locked mouthpiece is also called a Danger Bit.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
Trust Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed in such a way that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore accept Sweet Iron bits well.
