Trust Sweet Iron D-Ring French Link Bit 16mm 14.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron D-Ring French Bar 16mm 14.5

The bit is 20mm thick, measured at the thickest part in the horse's commissure. So it's a rather thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold bloods and Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.

When selecting the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron D-Ring French Bar 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron D-Ring French Bar 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with D-shaped rings as a cheekpiece. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The mouthpiece has a mouthpiece size of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit thickness

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

Cheekpiece

D-Ring

Due to the properties of this bit, it is wonderfully suitable for young horses that are still somewhat inexperienced. This is because the shape and weight of the side pieces 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

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 action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

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