The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Kimblehook Waterford Multi-Jointed Mouthpiece 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Kimblehook cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a Waterford or multi-jointed mouthpiece. The mouthpiece has a size of 14.5 centimeters. This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for very large warmbloods.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point, making it a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparative 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 use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Bit material

Sweet Iron

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms when they come into contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production, so horses readily accept Sweet Iron bits.

Mouthpiece

Multi-jointed/Waterford

A multi-jointed or Waterford mouthpiece consists of a series of rounded links. It is a flexible bit that forms to the horse's mouth and creates even pressure. It can move in all directions, making it difficult for the horse to lean on the bit, allowing the rider to maintain proper control. In soft hands, this mouthpiece is gentle and friendly, but with a strong hand, the bit can be sharp.

Cheekpiece

Kimblehook

The Kimblehook combines a leverage effect on the lower jaw, pressure on the poll, and a change in the position of the bit in the horse's mouth. The Kimblehook allows for three different attachment options, enabling a well-dosed use of the bit. The stable cheekpieces ensure a calm position in the mouth.
