Trust Sweet Iron Snaffle Bit with Olive Head and French Link

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Olive Head French Bar

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the horse's cheek area. It is therefore a 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 conditions of the horse's mouth. You can test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

The Trust Equestrian Team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and function of the bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Olive Head French Bar from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Olive Head French Bar is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with elevator olive head rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar.

Bit thickness

Cheekpiece

Elevator bit with olive head rings

This bit combines the advantages of an olive head bit and an elevator bit. The olive head ring provides more lateral stability in the horse's mouth. The Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Olive Head French Bar can be ridden with one or two reins, like any elevator bit.

Mouthpiece

Bar bits

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

Bit material

Sweet Iron

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