Product description
Trust Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle, single jointed 12mm 10.5
The bit is 12mm thick, measured at the thickest part in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it a rather thin mouthpiece.
Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and especially 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 use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and palate.
Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the best materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle, single jointed 12mm 10.5 from the Trust Equestrian range today:
The bit Trust Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle, single jointed 12mm 10.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is single jointed. The bit has a width of 10.5 centimetres.
Bit thickness
This mouthpiece size is generally suitable for ponies.
Cheekpiece
Loose Ring Snaffle
The loose ring snaffle has two free-running rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle, single jointed 12mm 10.5 is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
Mouthpiece
single jointed
A single jointed bit has a hinge point, which means less pressure is exerted on the tongue than with a double jointed mouthpiece. A single jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and the sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. A single jointed mouthpiece is an absolute standard mouthpiece and very common.
Bit material
Sweet Iron
Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been 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.
