We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Hackamore Combination Short Double-Jointed with High Port 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:
The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Hackamore Combination Short Double-Jointed with High Port 16mm 13.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Hackamore shanks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The mouthpiece has a size of 13.5 centimeters. A mouthpiece size of 13.5cm is usually ideal for smaller and normal warmbloods.
Bit Thickness
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. This makes it a medium-strength 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.
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.
Side Piece
Hackamore
The Hackamore is a bitless bridle that focuses its action on the bridge of the nose. In addition, when the reins are taken up, it also acts on the poll and chin groove.
