The Trust Equestrian bit range provides gentle yet effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron D-Ring Straight Bar bit from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The Trust Sweet Iron D-Ring Straight Bar bit is made of Sweet Iron and features D-shaped rings as cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. This makes it a moderately thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-blooded horses and Shires 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.

Bit material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been 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.

Mouthpiece

Straight Bar Bits

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

Cheekpiece

D-Ring

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