Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Waterford 16mm 13.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Waterford 16mm 13.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. This makes it a rather medium-strength 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 features of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Trust Equestrian bits are selected with the utmost care and manufactured from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Waterford 16mm 13.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

Bit Thickness

This mouthpiece size is usually well suited for a normal warmblood.

Cheekpiece

Loose Ring

The loose ring has two freely moving rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Waterford 16mm 13.5 is therefore a bit for horses that prefer a more "mobile" bit in their mouth.

Mouthpiece

Multi-jointed/Waterford

A multi-jointed or Waterford mouthpiece consists of a series of rounded links. It is a flexible bit that conforms to the horse's mouth and creates even pressure. It can move in all directions, making it difficult for the horse to lean on the bit, allowing the rider to maintain proper control. In soft hands, this mouthpiece is soft and kind, but with a strong hand, the bit can be sharp.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed in such a way that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore accept Sweet Iron bits well.
