Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle French Link Copper Plate

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle French Link Copper Plate

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it a rather medium-strength mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is typically 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 selecting the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical features of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Bits from Trust Equestrian are carefully selected and made from the best materials. Today we would like to present the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle French Link Copper Plate from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle French Link Copper Plate is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with full cheeks as side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a French Link, which is an eight-shaped plate as the center piece of a double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Thickness

Side Piece

Full Cheek Snaffle

The full cheek snaffle lies very quietly and stably in the mouth. It ensures reliable lateral limitation 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

French Link

The French Link mouthpiece is a double-jointed mouthpiece with an eight-shaped plate in the middle that exerts even pressure on the tongue. This mouthpiece is double-jointed, more shaped to the mouth, and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed to develop surface rust when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
