Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle Flat Bar 16mm 11.5

Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle Straight Bar 16mm 11.5

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. 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 Shires 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 the palate.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the greatest care and made from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle Straight Bar 16mm 11.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

Bit thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for athletic thoroughbreds.

Cheeks

Loose Ring Snaffle

The loose ring snaffle has two loose rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle Straight Bar 16mm 11.5 is therefore a bit for horses that prefer a more "mobile" bit in the mouth.

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.
