Trust Sweet Iron D-Ring Snaffle 16mm 13.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron D-Ring Single Jointed 16mm 13.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. So it's more of a medium-strength 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 palate.

The bit range from Trust Equestrian provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron D-Ring Single Jointed 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in a little more detail today:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron D-Ring Single Jointed 16mm 13.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with D-shaped rings as side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is single jointed. The mouthpiece has a width of 13.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 13.5cm is usually ideal for smaller and normal warmbloods.

Side Piece

D-Ring

Due to the characteristics of this bit, it is wonderfully suitable for young horses that are still a little inexperienced. Because the shape and weight of the side parts ensure a calm and comfortable position in the mouth. Due to the shape of the D-shaped rings, optimal lateral support is provided. Good and calm rein guidance is facilitated by the large ring. The larger rings provide a little more leverage on the poll.

Mouthpiece

Single Jointed

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron D-Ring Single Jointed 16mm 13.5 has a joint in the middle, which puts less pressure on the tongue than a double jointed mouthpiece. A single jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and the sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. A single jointed mouthpiece is an absolute standard mouthpiece and very widely used.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

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