Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 2-Slots French Link 16mm 11.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 2-Slots French Link 16mm 11.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point, making it a rather thick mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold-bloods, and Shire Horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

When choosing 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.

The Trust Equestrian team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 2-Slots French Link 16mm 11.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

Driving bits

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

Liverpool Curb Bit The Liverpool curb bit is a classic driving bit and offers several options for rein attachment. The Liverpool curb 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 the bars and has a greater effect on the tongue.

Post Curb Bit The Post curb bit is also a classic driving bit and is common for agricultural harness. It offers two options for rein attachment. Attachment in the lower ring provides leverage. When attached in the upper ring, this leverage is absent, and the bit becomes a snaffle bit.

Mouthpiece

Mullen mouth bits

A mullen mouth is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A mullen mouth mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

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