BR D-Trens Sweet Iron

BR double broken D-Ring Sweet Iron 14 mm The Sweet Iron bits are known for the sweet taste of the mouthpiece. In addition, the bits are anatomically shaped and available in many shapes and sizes.

This double jointed D ring bartack is made of solid stainless steel combined with a sweet iron layer on the mouthpiece (blue). The sweet iron coating on the mouthpiece stimulates the production of saliva. When this material reacts with moisture, heat and air, it will oxidize and develop a sweet tasting surface rust. This aids in bit acceptance. Eventually the blue color disappears, but the taste of the surface rust remains.

The anatomical design follows the shape of the horse's mouth, creating a soft and even pressure distribution. With a double broken bit, the mouthpiece consists of three parts, the middle part of which lies flat on the tongue. This creates more pressure on the tongue than with a single broken mouthpiece. The thicker the center piece, the more pressure on the tongue. The nozzle has a thickness of 14 mm and the bit rings have a diameter of 65 mm.

A D-bar tack has D-rings that cannot rotate freely, so aids act more directly. This type of bit is generally well accepted because the mouthpiece is relatively firm in the mouth. Due to the D-shape, the rider cannot pull the bit through the mouth and the horse remains easy to control, making the bit also suitable for young horses.
