Trust Sweet Iron Olive Head Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Olive Head Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16mm at its thickest point, making it a moderately 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, draft horses, 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 check how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

The Trust Equestrian bit range provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Olive Head Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Olive Head Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with olive head rings as a cheekpiece. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The bit has a size of 12.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 12.5cm is usually ideal for thoroughbreds.

Cheekpiece

Olive head

Olive head bits have fixed, oval-shaped rings at the ends. The fixed rings provide a bit more stability in the mouth, which results in the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Olive Head Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5 lying more quietly in the horse's mouth.

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

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits were developed in such a way that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
