Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 3-Slots flat bar 16mm 13.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 3-Slots Flat Bar 16mm 13.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. So it is a moderately strong mouthpiece.

Reference values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and especially 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 use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

The Trust Equestrian team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and effectiveness of bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 3-Slots Flat Bar 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece size 13.5cm is usually ideal for smaller and normal warmbloods.

Cheekpiece

Driving bits

Driving bits such as the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Liverpool 3-Slots Flat Bar 16mm 13.5 are particularly suitable 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 port forward. This forward inclination relieves 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 leverage. When attached in the upper ring, this leverage is absent, and the bit becomes a ring bit.

Mouthpiece

Bar bits

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

Bit material

Sweet Iron

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed to develop surface rust when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
