The bit range from Trust Equestrian provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle with large rings french link bit from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:
The bit Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle with large rings french link is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring snaffle side pieces, i.e. rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a French Link, which is an eight-shaped plate as the center piece of a double jointed mouthpiece.
Bit Thickness
The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point, making it a rather medium-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 bloods 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 features 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
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 rust tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production, which makes horses readily accept Sweet Iron bits.

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 has two hinge points, is more shaped towards the mouth and lies somewhat looser in the horse's mouth.
Side Piece
Loose Ring Snaffle
A loose running ring characterizes a loose ring snaffle. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle with large rings french link is therefore a bit for horses that prefer a more "mobile" bit in their mouth.
