Trust Equestrian Sweet Iron Loose Ring Cherry Roller

Product description

Sweet Iron

• Sweet Iron bits are made of blue steel and release a sweet-tasting surface rust through contact with saliva, which stimulates the horse's saliva production in a natural way. This sweet surface rust will cause the horse to foam more and accept the bit better.
• When a Sweet Iron bit is temporarily not used, an orange-brown rust layer can form on the mouthpiece. This can be easily removed by wiping the bit with a damp cloth.

Loose Ring

• A loose ring snaffle is a basic bit with loose movable bit rings and is therefore quite loose in the mouth.
• Depending on the type, thickness and material, a loose ring snaffle gets a sharper or softer effect.
• It is important that the loose ring is not too narrow, otherwise a skin from the corners of the mouth can get in between.
  If your horse does have problems with this, you can use rubber bit rings if necessary.
• A loose ring snaffle is a good basic bit, suitable for many horses and riders.

Single Jointed

• A single jointed bit has a hinge point in the middle that puts pressure on the lips, layers and sides of the tongue. A single jointed bit squeezes the tongue slightly under pressure and puts less pressure on the tongue.
• A single jointed bit rises slightly in the middle and can sting the palate. In this case is it better to choose a double-jointed or straight mouthpiece.
• A single jointed bit is a good basic bit, suitable for many horses and riders.

Copper & Cherry Roller

• The mouthpiece of this bit features a series of rollers that encourage the horse to play with the bit, creating relaxation in the jaws.
• The movement of these rollers promote the production of saliva, which makes it easier to accept the bit and the horse is less suitable for grabbing the bit.
• Due to the more rounded shape of the mouthpiece, a cherry roller has a friendlier effect than the Magenis bit.
