The Trust Equestrian team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize their design and function. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle with Large Rings Wide Port Segundo 16mm 11.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle with Large Rings Wide Port Segundo 16mm 11.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with loose ring snaffle cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The bit has a width of 11.5 centimeters. The 11.5cm mouthpiece size is usually ideal for Thoroughbreds.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. It is therefore a medium-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 test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

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 readily accept Sweet Iron bits.

Mouthpiece

Straight Bar Bits

A straight bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A straight bar mouthpiece has a sharper action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Cheekpiece

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 Bit Sweet Iron Loose Ring Snaffle with Large Rings Wide Port Segundo 16mm 11.5 is therefore a bit for horses that prefer a more "mobile" bit in their mouth.
