The loose ring bit is a standard cheekpiece. This cheekpiece has loose rings that allow the bit to move more freely in the horse’s mouth, which is why many horses accept this bit well. To prevent the leather from getting caught between the moving rings, it is advisable to equip the bit with bit guards. Large rings have a more indirect effect than smaller rings. They ensure better distribution of pressure on the cheeks, making it easier for the horse to maneuver and making it harder to pull the bit out of the mouth. Additionally, large rings can provide a slight leverage effect.

The single-jointed bit has one joint, which applies less pressure on the tongue compared to a double-jointed bit. A single-jointed bit primarily acts on the bars, the sides of the tongue, and can also affect the palate. A single-jointed bit is considered a standard bit.

Sweet Iron mouthpieces are made of steel and have a recognizable blue color. Through contact with moisture (from the air), Sweet Iron develops a surface rust that has a sweet taste and naturally stimulates the horse’s saliva production. This will make the horse foam more, ensuring better acceptance of the bit. This oxidation process changes the blue color of TRUST bits to a grayish-brown.

TRUST equestrian brakes are traditional Dutch. All bits are designed, developed and handmade in the Netherlands. A team of technical professionals work on production every day. The tips are assembled with the greatest care and made from the best materials. Therefore, the quality control and standard are very high. In each design, the balance between shape, material and weight is always taken into account. TRUST bits are slightly curved to fit better in the horse’s mouth. This anatomical shape allows the drill bit to fit better in the mouth and distribute the pressure better. Due to the wide variety of mouthpieces, jaw pieces and materials, TRUST strives to have a suitable bit for every horse.
