When exposed to humid air and saliva, it develops a surface oxidation with a sweet taste that naturally stimulates salivation: the horse chews more and accepts the bit more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Barrel fitted with brass rings at its center. It is suitable for horses with a “dead” mouth that need stimulation, and increases tongue activity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Two vertical cheeks attached to a fixed ring. These cheeks press against the side of the horse’s cheek and significantly improve steering. The ring is smaller than that of a D-ring bit, so the leverage effect is lower.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e📋 Technical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: full-cheek snaffle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Sweet Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarrel: with brass rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarrel thickness: 16 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes (mm): 115 \/ 125 \/ 135 \/ 145\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🐎 Why choose this product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brass reawakens a mouth that no longer salivates or shows activity: this is a bit for getting things moving again, not an everyday bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Usage advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚠️ Bit size is given in millimetres: it is the width of the barrel from one ring to the other. A 125 measures 12.5 cm. Measure your horse’s mouth with a bit measuring gauge, or use the measurement of the bit it currently wears: if it is too wide, the bit moves around and pinches; if it is too narrow, it pinches the corners of the mouth. ⚠️ The upper cheeks are attached to the bridle with keepers to prevent them from tipping forward. ⚠️ The blue colour turns silver-grey or brown-grey with use, and an orange film appears when the bit remains unused: this is normal Sweet Iron behaviour, not a defect. A wipe with a damp cloth is enough to remove it. This oxidation is not harmful. ⚠️ On a horse that is already restless in the mouth, this stimulation may produce the opposite effect.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TRUST","offers":[{"title":"115","offer_id":58640653189455,"sku":"E25480L050115","price":129.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"125","offer_id":58640653222223,"sku":"E25480L050125","price":129.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"135","offer_id":58640653254991,"sku":"E25480L050135","price":129.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"145","offer_id":58640653287759,"sku":"E25480L050145","price":129.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/E25480_L050_01_fbf7728f-08aa-4cb9-95a5-1aab8c2f5f79.jpg?v=1788473523","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-trust-sweet-iron-a-aiguilles-a-anneaux-de-laiton","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
