Product description
Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle with large rings dr.bristol 16mm 13.5
The bit is 16mm thick, measured at its thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it 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 selecting 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.
Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the best materials. Today we would like to present the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle with large rings dr.bristol 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle with large rings dr.bristol 16mm 13.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a Dr. Bristol, which is a plate as the center piece of a double-jointed mouthpiece. The bit has a size of 13.5 centimeters.
Bit thickness
The mouthpiece size 13.5cm is usually ideal for smaller and normal warmbloods.
Cheek 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 Snaffle with large rings dr.bristol 16mm 13.5 is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
Mouthpiece
Dr. Bristol
The Dr. Bristol mouthpiece is a double-jointed mouthpiece with a flat center piece. The center plate in a Dr. Bristol is angled and flat-edged. It acts primarily on the tongue with a sharp action due to the straight, angled plate and with a smaller angle on the bars. This mouthpiece helps with strong horses.
Bit material
Sweet Iron
Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed so that surface rust forms when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
