Trust Sweet Iron Kimblewick double jointed with copper rings 16mm 14.5

Trust Sweet Iron Kimblehook Double Jointed Bit with Copper Rings 16mm 14.5

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the horse's commissure area. This makes it a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-bloods and Shires 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 use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

Bits from Trust Equestrian are selected with the utmost care and made from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Kimblehook Double Jointed Bit with Copper Rings 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The bit Trust Sweet Iron Kimblehook Double Jointed Bit with Copper Rings 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Kimblehook shanks. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed. The bit has a width of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 14.5cm is usually ideal for very large warmbloods.

Shank

Kimblehook

The Kimblehook combines a leverage effect on the lower jaw, a pressure development on the poll, and a change in the bit's position in the horse's mouth. The Kimblehook allows for three different attachment options, enabling a well-dosed use of the bit. The solid side pieces are a bit heavier, which ensures a quieter position in the horse's mouth.

Mouthpiece

Double Jointed

A double jointed mouthpiece is a standard mouthpiece. 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. Be careful with narrow lower jaws! The joints can press on the bars with a narrow lower jaw. The double jointed bit exerts more pressure on the tongue compared to single jointed bits.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

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