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✔ A single joint. This mouthpiece puts less pressure on the tongue than a double-jointed one and works mainly on the bars and sides of the tongue. It is the standard mouthpiece.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Two vertical cheeks on a fixed ring. These cheeks press against the side of the cheek and significantly assist with 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\u003eMouthpiece: single-jointed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece 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\u003eThis is the mouthpiece most horses are familiar with: the one to start with, and the one to return to when you want to determine what comes from the bit and what comes from the rider's hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Usage advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚠️ Bit size is given in millimetres: it is the width of the mouthpiece from one ring to the other. A 125 measures 12.5 cm. Measure your horse's mouth with a bit-sizing ruler, or use the measurement of the bit it wears: if too wide, the bit moves around and pinches; if too narrow, it squeezes the corners of the mouth. ⚠️ The upper cheeks are secured to the bridle with keepers to prevent them from tipping forward. ⚠️ The blue colour turns silver-grey or brown-grey with use, and an orangey film appears when the bit is left 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TRUST","offers":[{"title":"115","offer_id":58640654270799,"sku":"E25486L050115","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"125","offer_id":58640654303567,"sku":"E25486L050125","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"135","offer_id":58640654336335,"sku":"E25486L050135","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"145","offer_id":58640654369103,"sku":"E25486L050145","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/E25486_L050_01_629cfe0b-a90d-43f3-aaf1-429e84d10637.jpg?v=1788473531","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-trust-sweet-iron-a-aiguilles-a-brisure-simple","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
