Trust Sweet Iron Swivel Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Swivel Double Jointed with High Port 16mm 12.5

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at its thickest point in the horse's commissures. This makes it a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparative 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.

The Trust Equestrian Team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Swivel double jointed with high port 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Swivel double jointed with high port 16mm 12.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with so-called Universal Rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The mouthpiece has a mouthpiece size of 12.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for athletic thoroughbreds.

Cheekpiece

Universal/Swivel

The universal bit, also known as a Beval or Swivel, usually has rings as cheekpieces with internal eyes at the top and bottom. These allow for additional attachment of cheekpieces and reins, making the bit very flexible. With the Beval, the mouthpiece is attached to a central axis of the ring.

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 action 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 on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
