When selecting 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.

The Trust Bit Sweet Eggbutt Snaffle Tongue Port Bit medium 13.5 16mm is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with eggbutt rings as a cheekpiece. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The hardness of the mouthpiece material is rather medium, meaning slightly flexible. The bit has a width of 13.5 centimeters.
Bit thickness
The mouthpiece size 13.5cm is usually ideal for smaller and normal warmbloods.
Cheekpiece
Eggbutt
Eggbutt bits have fixed, oval-shaped rings at the ends. These provide a little more stability in the mouth, which means that the Trust Bit Sweet Eggbutt Snaffle Tongue Port Bit medium 13.5 16mm lies more quietly in the horse's mouth.
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 effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.
Bit material
Sweet Iron
Trust's 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, making horses readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
