The Trust Equestrian team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and effectiveness of their bits. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit sweet Iron Curbgag single jointed from the Trust Equestrian range:

The Trust Bit sweet Iron Curbgag single jointed is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with so-called Curbgag rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is single jointed.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16mm at its thickest point. This makes it a medium-strong 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 choosing 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 the palate.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed so that surface rust develops upon contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.

Mouthpiece

single jointed

The Trust Bit sweet Iron Curbgag single jointed has a single joint in the middle, which applies less pressure to the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. The single-jointed mouthpiece is the most popular mouthpiece on the market.

Cheek piece

Curbgag

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