Trust Snaffle Sweet Iron Curb Gag Medium Bar 16mm 14.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Curbgag medium bar 16mm 14.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point. This makes it a rather thick 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, draft horses, and Shire Horses usually require 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 conditions 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 greatest care and made from the most suitable materials. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Curbgag medium bar 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Curbgag medium bar 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with so-called Curbgag rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The bit has a size of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for very large warmbloods.

Cheekpiece

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 curb strap that can be engaged and released as needed. It is very suitable for horses that tend to pull forward.

Mouthpiece

Bar Bits

A bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A bar mouthpiece has a sharper action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

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.
