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✔ Double-jointed with a central elliptical link. This shape better follows the anatomy of the mouth, allowing the bit to sit more freely, but it applies slightly more pressure to the center of the tongue than a single joint.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Small fixed rings: stable position in the mouth and direct action. This format is used as a snaffle on a bridle (12 mm) or as a mouthpiece for a hackamore (12 or 16 mm).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e📋 Technical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: eggbutt bridle snaffle bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Sweet Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece: double-jointed with an elliptical link\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece thicknesses: 12 mm \/ 16 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes (mm): 115 \/ 125 \/ 130 \/ 135 \/ 140 \/ 145 \/ 150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🐎 Why choose this product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe elliptical link eliminates the pinching effect of a single joint without imposing the firmness of a flat plate: it is the most forgiving type of double-jointed bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Use and care advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚠️ Bit size is given in millimetres: this 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 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 tightens the corners of the mouth. Choose the thickness according to the mouth: a thick mouthpiece distributes pressure over a larger surface, but takes up too much room in a shallow mouth or with a thick tongue. ⚠️ The blue colour turns grey-silver or brown-grey with use, and an orange film appears when the bit is left unused: this is the normal behaviour of Sweet Iron, 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 \/ 16 mm","offer_id":58647445307727,"sku":"E25634L050115","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"125 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58647445340495,"sku":"E25633L050125","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"125 \/ 16 mm","offer_id":58647445373263,"sku":"E25634L050125","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"130 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58647445406031,"sku":"E25633L050130","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"135 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58647445438799,"sku":"E25633L050135","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"135 \/ 16 mm","offer_id":58647445471567,"sku":"E25634L050135","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"140 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58647445504335,"sku":"E25633L050140","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"145 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58647445537103,"sku":"E25633L050145","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"145 \/ 16 mm","offer_id":58647445569871,"sku":"E25634L050145","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"150 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58647445602639,"sku":"E25633L050150","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/E25634_L050_01_9426e00f-6886-4b21-b1bf-6a9dddbdf822.jpg?v=1788644143","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-trust-sweet-iron-filet-de-bride-a-olives-double-brisure-a-maillon-elliptique","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
