Product description
Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring French Link 16mm 12.5
The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest part in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it a rather medium-thick mouthpiece.
Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm, and particularly large warmbloods, draft horses, 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 test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.
The Trust Equestrian Team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and function of the bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring French Link 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:
The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring French Link 16mm 12.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a French Link, which means an eight-shaped plate as the center piece of a double-jointed mouthpiece. The mouthpiece has a mouthpiece size of 12.5 centimeters.
Bit Thickness
The mouthpiece size 12.5cm is usually ideal for thoroughbreds.
Cheek Piece
Loose Ring
The loose ring bit has two free-running rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring French Link 16mm 12.5 is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
Mouthpiece
French Link
The French Link mouthpiece has two hinge points and an eight-shaped plate in the middle that exerts even pressure on the tongue. This mouthpiece is double-jointed, is more shaped towards the mouth and lies somewhat looser in the horse's mouth.
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 accept Sweet Iron bits well.
