Trust Sweet Iron Kimblehook - RNF Locked - 16mm

Sweet Iron

• Sweet Iron bits are made of blue steel and release a sweet-tasting surface rust through contact with saliva, which stimulates the horse's saliva production in a natural way. This sweet surface rust will cause the horse to foam more and accept the bit better.
• When a Sweet Iron bit is temporarily not used, an orange-brown rust layer can form on the mouthpiece. This can be easily removed by wiping the bit with a damp cloth.

RNF Bit- Butterfly Flip Bit- Kimblehook

• An RNF Bit is also called a Butterfly Flip Bit, named after the famous jumping horse Butterfly Flip with Malin Baryard.
• A kimblehook is a hanging D with chin strap that works like a kind of pelham with a milder effect and is used with one rein.
• This side piece has 3 options for attaching one rein. The lower the rein is placed, the greater the leverage and the bit sharper.
• An RNF Bit offers the rider more control over the horse than a standard side piece.

Single Jointed

• A single jointed bit has a hinge point in the middle that puts pressure on the lips, layers and sides of the tongue. A single jointed bit squeezes the tongue slightly under pressure and puts less pressure on the tongue.
• A single jointed bit rises slightly in the middle and can sting the palate. In this case is it better to choose a double-jointed or straight mouthpiece.
• A single jointed bit is a good basic bit, suitable for many horses and riders.

Locked

• Locked bits resemble a single broken bit, but cannot hinge as much and lock with a lot of rein pressure, turning the bit into a straight bit.
• A locked bit acts with a lot of rein pressure as a straight bit and with little rein pressure as a single jointed bit.
• Locked bits are suitable for horses that run through the hand and are not suitable for an inexperienced rider.
