Trust Bit Sweet Iron Eggbut Locked 16mm

The eggbutt bit is a standard jaw piece. The rings cannot move loosely so that the aid comes through more directly and the bit lies relatively still in the mouth. In addition, the bit prevents the lips from becoming jammed, so that bit rings are not necessary for this jaw piece.

The locked mouthpiece resembles a single broken bit but cannot fold as double as a normal single broken bit. When backpressed, the bit blocks, turning it into a rod and making it a sharper bit. With less pressure on the reins, the bit changes back to a single broken bit. This makes it an ideal bit for horses that are against the hand and walk through the hand. This bit is not suitable for an inexperienced rider.

The Sweet Iron bits are made of steel and have a recognizable blue color. Sweet Iron develops surface rust through contact with (air) humidity that tastes sweet and stimulates the saliva production of the horse in a natural way. This will cause the horse to foam more, which ensures better acceptance of the bit. This rusting process (oxidation) changes the blue color of the TRUST bits to brown-gray.

The bits of TRUST equestrian are typically Dutch. All bits are designed, developed and handmade in the Netherlands. Every day, a team of technical professionals works on production. The bits are composed with the utmost care and made of the best materials. The quality control and standard are therefore very high. With every design, the balance between shape, material and weight is continuously taken into account. The TRUST bits are slightly curved, so that they form better to the horse's mouth. Due to this anatomical shape, the bit lies better in the mouth and the pressure is better distributed. Due to the wide choice of mouthpieces, jaw pieces and materials, TRUST strives to have a suitable bit for every horse.
