Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Bridoon High Port 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range:
The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Bridoon High Port 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a ported mouthpiece. The bit has a size of 14.5 centimeters. The 14.5cm mouthpiece size is usually ideal for very large warmbloods.
Bit thickness
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point. It is therefore a rather thick 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-blooded horses and Shire horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.
When choosing 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 in such a way that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept the 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 continuously developed by Trust's technical teams and strictly quality-controlled.
Mouthpiece
Ported mouthpieces
A ported mouthpiece is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A ported mouthpiece has a sharper action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.
Side piece
Loose ring snaffle
A loose ring characterizes a loose ring snaffle. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Bridoon High Port 16mm 14.5 is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
