Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle French Link 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in a little more detail today:

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle French Link 16mm 13.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The mouthpiece has a size of 13.5 centimeters. This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for a normal warmblood.

Bit thickness

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 Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.

When choosing 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.

Bit material

Sweet Iron

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.

Manufacturer information

Trust Equestrian

The Dutch bit manufacturer Trust Equestrian is characterized by innovation and craftsmanship. With the Inno Sense and Sweet Iron series, they are breaking new ground. The products are constantly being further developed by Trust's technical teams and strictly quality-controlled.

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 effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Cheek piece

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 Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle French Link 16mm 13.5 is therefore a bit for horses that prefer a "more mobile" bit in the mouth.
