Trust Sweet Iron Hackamore Combination short double jointed

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Hackamore Combination Short Double Jointed

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16mm at its thickest point. It is therefore a medium-thick mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually 10mm to 14mm. Very large warmbloods, draft horses, and Shire Horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

When choosing 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 Sweet Iron Hackamore Combination Short Double Jointed bit from the Trust Equestrian range in a little more detail today:

The Trust Sweet Iron Hackamore Combination Short Double Jointed bit is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Hackamore shanks. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed.

Bit Thickness

Cheekpiece

Hackamore

The hackamore has no mouthpiece in the horse's mouth, but acts more on the nose, jaw, and poll through the leverage.

Mouthpiece

Double Jointed

Double jointed mouthpieces are suitable for many horses. This mouthpiece has two hinges, is shaped more towards the mouth and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth. This bit exerts pressure on the tongue, the bars, and the corners of the mouth. Caution with narrow lower jaws! The joints can press on the bars if the lower jaw is narrow. Compared to a single jointed bit, this bit exerts more pressure on the tongue.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed to develop surface rust when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
