Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle, Double Broken 16mm 14.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle Double Jointed 16mm 14.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16mm at its thickest point. So it's more of a medium-thick mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is typically 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.

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

The bit range from Trust Equestrian provides soft yet effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle Double Jointed 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle Double Jointed 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed. The mouthpiece has a width of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 14.5cm is usually ideal for very large warmbloods.

Cheekpiece

Loose Ring Snaffle

A loose ring snaffle has two loose rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle Double Jointed 16mm 14.5 is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are a bit inactive in the mouth.

Mouthpiece

Double Jointed

A double-jointed mouthpiece is a very common mouthpiece. This mouthpiece has two hinges, is shaped more towards the mouth and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth. This bit exerts pressure on the tongue, the bars, and the corners of the mouth. Be careful with narrow lower jaws! The hinge points can press on the bars, which can lead to sores. Compared to a single-jointed bit, this bit exerts more pressure on the tongue.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed to create surface rust when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
