The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Curbgag Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 11.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with so-called Curbgag rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a Dr. Bristol, which means a plate as the center piece of a double-jointed mouthpiece. The mouthpiece has a size of 11.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 11.5cm is usually ideal for Thoroughbreds.

Side Piece

Curbgag

The combination bit, or curb gag, ensures optimal pressure distribution on the lower jaw and mouth and is very well accepted by the horse. The second rein acts like a chin strap that can be taken up and released as needed. This bit is very suitable for particularly strong and forward-going horses.

Mouthpiece

Dr. Bristol

The Dr. Bristol mouthpiece is a double-jointed mouthpiece with a flat center piece. The center plate in a Dr. Bristol is angled and flat-edged. It mainly acts on the tongue with a sharp effect due to the straight, angled plate and with a smaller angle on the bars. This mouthpiece helps with strong horses.

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 accept Sweet Iron bits well.
