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 better.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Single joint with both branches twisted. The twist creates edges, resulting in a more incisive action on the bars than a smooth single joint.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Two vertical cheekpieces on a fixed ring. These full cheeks press against the side of the cheek and significantly aid 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: twisted, 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\u003eThe twist sharpens the action on the bars: this is a bit for occasional corrective use and should not be used continuously in a horse's mouth.\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 ruler, or use the measurement of the bit it wears: if too wide, the bit moves around and pinches; if too narrow, it constricts the corners of the mouth. ⚠️ The high cheekpieces 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. ⚠️ This mouthpiece is not suitable for sensitive horses or inexperienced riders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TRUST","offers":[{"title":"115","offer_id":58640655253839,"sku":"E25491L050115","price":139.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"125","offer_id":58640655286607,"sku":"E25491L050125","price":139.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"135","offer_id":58640655319375,"sku":"E25491L050135","price":139.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"145","offer_id":58640655352143,"sku":"E25491L050145","price":139.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/E25491_L050_01.jpg?v=1788302988","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-trust-sweet-iron-a-aiguilles-torsade-a-brisure-simple","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
