Product description
Trust Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle Bit, single-jointed
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its widest point. It is therefore a medium-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.
Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the greatest care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle Bit, single-jointed from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The Trust Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle Bit, single-jointed is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is single-jointed.
Bit thickness
Cheeks
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 Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle Bit, single-jointed is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
Mouthpiece
single-jointed
The Trust Sweet Iron Pony Loose Ring Snaffle Bit, single-jointed has a joint in the middle, which puts less pressure on the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece mainly exerts pressure on the bars and the sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. The single-jointed mouthpiece is certainly the most common of all mouthpieces alongside the double-jointed mouthpiece.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
Trust Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits were developed in such a way that surface rust forms when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
