Cheek Piece

Driving Cheeks

Driving bits like the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 2-Slots Single Jointed 16mm 14.5 are specially suited for the needs of carriage horses. There are several types of driving 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 arch 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 commonly used for agricultural harnessing. It offers two options for rein attachment. Attachment in the lower ring creates a leverage effect. When attached in the upper ring, this leverage effect is absent, and the bit becomes a snaffle bit.

Mouthpiece

Single Jointed

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 2-Slots Single Jointed 16mm 14.5 has a joint in the middle, which applies less pressure on the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece mainly applies pressure on the bars and sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. A single-jointed mouthpiece is an absolute standard mouthpiece and very widespread.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

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