Trust Bit Sweet Iron D-Ring Roller Bit 16mm 12.5

Trust Sweet Iron D-Ring Roller Bit 16mm 12.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point, making it a rather thick mouthpiece.

Comparison 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 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 the palate.

The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and function of the bits. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron D-Ring Roller Bit 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The bit Trust Sweet Iron D-Ring Roller Bit 16mm 12.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with D-shaped rings as cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is single-jointed. The bit has a size of 12.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 12.5cm is usually ideal for Thoroughbreds.

Cheekpiece

D-Ring

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

Mouthpiece

single-jointed

The Trust Sweet Iron D-Ring Roller Bit 16mm 12.5 has a 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 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 are designed so that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore accept Sweet Iron bits well.
