Product description
Trust Bit Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle Double Jointed 12mm 9.5
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 12mm at its widest point, making it a rather thin 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 features of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to check how much space there is between the tongue and palate.
The Trust Equestrian team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and function of bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle Double Jointed 12mm 9.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:
The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle Double Jointed 12mm 9.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed. The bit has a width of 9.5 centimeters.
Bit Thickness
This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for ponies.
Cheek Piece
Loose Ring Snaffle
The loose ring snaffle has two freely moving rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle Double Jointed 12mm 9.5 is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
Mouthpiece
Double jointed
The double jointed mouthpiece is one of the most common mouthpieces on the market. This mouthpiece has two joints, is more shaped 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. Be careful with narrow lower jaws! The joints can press on the bars in horses with narrow lower jaws. The double jointed bit exerts more pressure on the tongue compared to single jointed bits.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits were developed so that surface rust forms when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore accept Sweet Iron bits well.
