Product description
Trust Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its widest point. This makes it a moderately thick mouthpiece.
For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is more like 10mm to 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold-blooded horses, and Shire Horses usually need 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 test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.
The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The bit Trust Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with full cheeks as a sidepiece. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The bit has a size of 12.5 centimeters.
Bit Thickness
The mouthpiece size 12.5cm is usually ideal for Thoroughbreds.
Sidepiece
Full Cheek Snaffle
The full cheek snaffle lies very quietly and stably in the mouth. It provides reliable lateral guidance without the risk of pinching the skin and lips due to the angled bars. This bit is suitable for horses that need clear lateral support and guidance when turning.
Mouthpiece
Straight Bar Bits
A straight bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A straight bar mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms when they come into contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
