Product description
Trust Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle Double Jointed with Copper Rings 16mm 13.5
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest 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 more like 10mm to 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 test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.
Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle Double Jointed with Copper Rings 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range:
The bit Trust Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle Double Jointed with Copper Rings 16mm 13.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with full cheeks or bars as side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed. The bit has a size of 13.5 centimeters.
Bit Thickness
This mouthpiece size is usually well suited for a normal warmblood.
Side Piece
Full Cheek Snaffle
The full cheek snaffle lies very quietly and stably in the mouth. It ensures reliable lateral guidance without the risk of pinching skin and lips due to the angled bars. This bit is suitable for horses that need clear lateral support and guidance when turning.
Mouthpiece
Double Jointed
A double jointed mouthpiece is a very common mouthpiece. This mouthpiece has two joints, is shaped more towards the mouth, and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth. This bit exerts pressure on the tongue, the bars, and the corners of the mouth. Be careful with narrow lower jaws! The joints can press on the bars if the lower jaw is narrow. Compared to a single jointed bit, this bit exerts more pressure on the tongue.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
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.
