The bit range from Trust Equestrian provides gentle yet effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Swivel Bit with Medium Bar from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The Trust Sweet Iron Swivel Bit with Medium Bar is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with so-called Universal rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar.
Bit Thickness
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16mm 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-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 palate.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits were 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
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.
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 a Beval, the mouthpiece is attached in a central axis of the ring.
