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. This is the standard mouthpiece.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Two D-shaped rings that do not tip forward and backward: greater stability and more direct action. The D shape increases lateral pressure against the cheek, making steering easier.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e📋 Technical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Verdun bit (D-rings)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Sweet Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece: single-jointed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece thicknesses: 12 mm \/ 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🧴 Instructions 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 wears: if too wide, the bit moves around and pinches; if 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 space in a shallow mouth or with a thick tongue. ⚠️ 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 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58640651419983,"sku":"E25855L050115","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"115 \/ 16 mm","offer_id":58640651452751,"sku":"E25856L050115","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"125 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58640651485519,"sku":"E25855L050125","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"125 \/ 16 mm","offer_id":58640651518287,"sku":"E25856L050125","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"135 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58640651551055,"sku":"E25855L050135","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"135 \/ 16 mm","offer_id":58640651583823,"sku":"E25856L050135","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"145 \/ 12 mm","offer_id":58640651616591,"sku":"E25855L050145","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"145 \/ 16 mm","offer_id":58640651649359,"sku":"E25856L050145","price":119.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/E25855_L050_01_22ae9d2d-484e-4c41-a39e-bd2589f5abb1.jpg?v=1788473514","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-trust-sweet-iron-verdun-anneaux-en-d-a-brisure-simple","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
