Product description
Trust Sweet Iron Swivel Bit with High Port, 16mm, 13.5cm
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its widest point. It is therefore a medium-thick mouthpiece.
Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-bloods 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 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 best materials. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Swivel bit with high port, 16mm, 13.5cm from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The Trust Sweet Iron Swivel bit with high port, 16mm, 13.5cm is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with so-called universal rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The bit has a mouthpiece size of 13.5 centimeters.
Bit Thickness
The mouthpiece size of 13.5cm is usually ideal for smaller and normal warmbloods.
Cheekpiece
Universal/Swivel
The universal bit, also called Beval or Swivel, usually has rings as cheekpieces, with internal eyelets at the top and bottom. These allow for additional attachment of cheekpieces and reins, which makes the bit very flexible. With the Beval, the mouthpiece is attached to a central axis of the ring.
Mouthpiece
Bar Bits
A bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A bar mouthpiece has a sharper action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed 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.
