Cheekpiece

Liverpool

Liverpool bits like the Trust Sweet Iron Liverpool Bit 2-Slots double jointed 16mm 11.5 are especially suitable for the needs of carriage horses. There are several types of Liverpool bits.

Liverpool Bit The Liverpool bit is a classic driving bit and offers several options for rein attachment. The Liverpool bit is usually available with short or long shanks. It is also possible to tilt the angle of the tongue port forward. This forward tilt relieves pressure on the bars and acts more on the tongue.

Post Bit The Post bit is also a classic driving bit and is commonly used for land harness. It offers two options for rein attachment. The lower ring is used to create leverage. When attached to the upper ring, this leverage is absent, and the bit becomes a snaffle bit.

Mouthpiece

Double jointed

The double jointed mouthpiece is one of the most common mouthpieces on the market. 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. The bit should not be used on horses with narrow lower jaws. The joints can press on the bars in horses with narrow lower jaws. 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 were developed so that surface rust forms upon contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
