Trust Sweet Iron 2.5 Eggbutt Locked - Size 125 mm (5")

Trust's "sweet iron" bits have a mouthpiece made of steel, which has a recognizable blue color. When this special alloy comes into contact with moisture, a kind of surface rust is formed, which tastes sweet and thus naturally stimulates saliva production. For this reason Trust bits are accepted and accepted by almost all horses. Due to this rust development (oxidation) the blue color of the TRUST bit changes to gray to brown. The Sweet Iron bit will form a thin orange-brown layer of rust on the mouthpiece when temporarily not in use. This can be easily removed with a damp cloth. The 2.5 ring bit comes with a single broken mouthpiece, which distributes the pressure on the chests as well as on the side of the tongue. The special feature here is the "locked" function of the bit. On the one hand the bit does not fold in its hinge as much as a classic single broken bit and on the other hand the hinge blocks and acts like a bar as soon as counter pressure is built up by the horse. This gives the bit a sharper effect and should only be used with fine aids.
