The Trust Equestrian team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and function of their bits. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Kimblehook Roller Bit from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The Trust Sweet Iron Kimblehook Roller Bit is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Kimblehook cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is single jointed.

Bit Thickness

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the area of the horse's commissures. It is therefore a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparison values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-bloods 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 palate.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

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

Manufacturer Information

The Dutch bit manufacturer Trust Equestrian is characterized by its innovative spirit and craftsmanship. With the Inno Sense and Sweet Iron series, they are breaking new ground. The products are continuously developed by Trust's technical teams and strictly quality-controlled.

Mouthpiece

single jointed

The single jointed mouthpiece has a hinge in the middle, which applies less pressure to the tongue than a double jointed mouthpiece. A single jointed mouthpiece primarily applies pressure to the bars and sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. A single jointed mouthpiece is an absolute standard mouthpiece and very widely used.

Cheekpiece

Kimblehook

The Kimblehook combines a leverage action on the lower jaw, pressure distribution on the poll, and a change in the bit's position in the horse's mouth. The Kimblehook allows three different attachment options, which enable a well-dosed use of the bit. The stable cheekpieces ensure a quiet position in the mouth.
