Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek High Port 16mm 12.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Bit High Port 16mm 12.5

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

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the greatest care and made from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Bit High Port 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in a little more detail today:

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Bit High Port 16mm 12.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with full cheeks as side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a solid bar. The mouthpiece has a size of 12.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size of 12.5cm is usually ideal for Thoroughbreds.

Side Piece

Full Cheek Bits

The full cheek bit 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

Solid Bar Bits

A solid bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A solid bar mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
