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 figure-eight-shaped central plate that distributes pressure evenly across the tongue. Its thinner edges make the action slightly more incisive than that of a standard double-jointed bit, and the plate is angled at 45° so it lies flat on the tongue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Combines a hackamore and a bit: pressure is distributed between the mouth, nose, and jaw. The long shanks increase leverage, and therefore intensity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e📋 Technical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: long combined hackamore bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Sweet Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece: double-jointed French Link\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 figure-eight plate distributes pressure evenly across the tongue: this is the reference double-jointed design, the one to try when a single joint causes discomfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Advice for use\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 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 squeezes the corners of the mouth. ⚠️ Significant leverage: for experienced riders only. Make sure the noseband rests on the bone, not on the cartilage of the nostrils. ⚠️ 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TRUST","offers":[{"title":"115","offer_id":58647464870223,"sku":"E25744L050115","price":279.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"125","offer_id":58647464902991,"sku":"E25744L050125","price":279.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"135","offer_id":58647464935759,"sku":"E25744L050135","price":279.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"145","offer_id":58647464968527,"sku":"E25744L050145","price":279.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/E25744_L050_01_9ce886a6-32e5-4daf-8ef6-fc59501fed78.jpg?v=1788710564","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-trust-sweet-iron-hackamore-combine-long-double-brisure-french-link","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
