Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle Single Broken 12mm 14.0

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Weymouth Bradoon Snaffle Single-Jointed 12mm 14.0

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 12mm at its thickest point. So it is rather a thin mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold-bloods and Shire Horses usually need a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

Weymouth bradoons for curb bits usually have a thickness of 12mm to 14mm.

When selecting the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical features of the horse's mouth. You can test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the best materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Weymouth Bradoon Snaffle Single-Jointed 12mm 14.0 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Weymouth Bradoon Snaffle Single-Jointed 12mm 14.0 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with smaller side pieces as a bradoon for curb bits. The mouthpiece of this bit is single-jointed. The mouthpiece has a mouthpiece size of 14 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for a normal warmblood.

Sidepiece

Mouthpiece

single-jointed

A single-jointed bit has one hinge point, which exerts less pressure on the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece mainly exerts pressure on the bars and the sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. The single-jointed mouthpiece is certainly the most common of all mouthpieces, alongside the double-jointed mouthpiece. Bradoon

The bradoon is used in combination with a curb bit. It is available in single and double-jointed mouthpiece variations. The difference to other snaffles lies in the rings (e.g. eggbutt rings), which are significantly smaller than the rings of normal bits. The bradoon is usually chosen half to a whole cm larger than the curb bit, as the curb bit is a straight bar and the bradoon is jointed.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

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