The bit range from Trust Equestrian provides soft yet effective aids for better communication between rider and horse. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Cherry Roller Snaffle with Large Rings 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range:
The bit Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Cherry Roller Snaffle with Large Rings 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is single-jointed. The bit has a width of 14.5 centimeters. The 14.5cm mouthpiece size is usually ideal for very large warmbloods.
Bit Thickness
The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest part in the area of the horse's lips. It is therefore a moderately thick mouthpiece.
Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, draft horses and Shires 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 use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.
Bit Material
Sweet Iron
Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed 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 continuously developed by Trust's technical teams and strictly quality controlled.
Mouthpiece
Single-jointed
A single-jointed bit has one hinge point, which means less pressure is exerted on the tongue than with a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and 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.
Cheek Piece
Loose Ring Snaffle
The loose ring snaffle has two freely moving rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Cherry Roller Snaffle with Large Rings 16mm 14.5 is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
