Trust Bit Sweet Iron Kimblehook single jointed blocking 16mm 13.5

Trust Sweet Iron Kimblehook Snaffle Bit, single jointed, locked 16mm 13.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. It is therefore a medium-strength 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 test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the greatest care and manufactured from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Kimblehook Snaffle Bit, single jointed, locked 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The bit Trust Sweet Iron Kimblehook Snaffle Bit, single jointed, locked 16mm 13.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with kimblehook cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is locked, meaning it blocks when the reins are taken up. The bit has a width of 13.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 13.5cm is normally ideal for smaller and normal warmbloods.

Cheekpiece

Kimblehook

The kimblehook combines a leverage effect on the lower jaw, a pressure distribution on the poll, and a change in the position of the bit in the horse's mouth. The kimblehook allows for three different buckling options, which enable a well-dosed use of the bit. The stable side parts ensure a calm position in the mouth.

Mouthpiece

Locked

The locked mouthpiece is similar to a single-jointed mouthpiece, but cannot bend as much as a single-jointed bit. When pressure is applied to the reins, the bit locks and thus becomes a straight bar, making it a sharper bit. When less pressure is applied to the reins, the bit changes back to a single-jointed bit. This makes it an ideal bit for horses that lean on the hand. The locked mouthpiece is also called a Danger Bit.

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.
