Trust Sweet Iron Beval Waterford Mouthpiece 16mm 13.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Beval Waterford Multi-Joint Mouthpiece 16mm 13.5

The bit is 20mm thick, measured at the thickest part in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it a rather thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-bloods 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 test how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

The Trust Equestrian Team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and function of the bits. Today we would like to present the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Beval Waterford Multi-Joint Mouthpiece 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Beval Waterford Multi-Joint Mouthpiece 16mm 13.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with so-called Universal Rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a Waterford or multi-joint. The mouthpiece has a width of 13.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well-suited for a normal warmblood.

Cheekpiece

Universal/Swivel

The Universal bit, also called Beval or Swivel, usually has rings as a cheekpiece, with internal eyelets at the top and bottom. These allow for additional buckling of cheekpieces and reins, which makes the bit very flexible. With the Beval, the mouthpiece is attached to a central axis of the ring.

Mouthpiece

Multi-Joint/Waterford

A multi-joint or Waterford mouthpiece consists of a series of rounded links. It is a flexible bit that conforms to the horse's mouth and creates even pressure. It can move in all directions, making it difficult for the horse to lean on the bit, allowing the rider to maintain proper control. In soft hands, this mouthpiece is soft and kind, but with a strong hand, the bit can be sharp.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed so that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
