The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Waterford Multi-Linked Mouthpiece 16mm 13.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with full cheeks or bars as a cheekpiece. The mouthpiece of this bit is a Waterford or multi-linked. The bit has a mouthpiece size of 13.5 centimeters. This mouthpiece size is generally well-suited for a normal warmblood.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. It is therefore a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Reference values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-blooded horses and Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.

When selecting 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 palate.

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.

Mouthpiece

Multi-linked/Waterford

A multi-linked or Waterford mouthpiece consists of a series of rounded links. It is a flexible bit that conforms to the horse's mouth, creating even pressure. It can move in all directions, making it difficult for the horse to lean on the bit, allowing the rider to maintain proper control. In soft hands, this mouthpiece is soft and kind, but with a strong hand, the bit can be sharp.

Cheekpiece

Full Cheek

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.
