The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Double Jointed Bit 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Double Jointed Bit 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed. The bit has a mouthpiece size of 14.5 centimeters. This mouthpiece size is usually a good fit for very large warmbloods.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. It is therefore 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 test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

Bit material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed so that surface rust develops when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.

Mouthpiece

double jointed

A double jointed mouthpiece is a standard mouthpiece. 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, bars and corners of the mouth. Caution with narrow lower jaws! The joints can press on the bars with a narrow lower jaw. Compared to a single jointed bit, this bit exerts more pressure on the tongue.

Sidepiece

Loose Ring

Loose ring bits have fixed, oval-shaped rings at the ends. The fixed rings provide a little more stability in the mouth, which means that the Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Double Jointed Bit 16mm 14.5 lies more quietly in the horse's mouth.
