Trust Sweet Iron Curb Gag French Link

We love this bit because the sweet iron mouthpiece helps encourage proper salivation for your horse. the unique curb gag is good for strong horses that may still be sensitive in the mouth.

A curb gag is similar to a gag but has a different effect. The pressure will now not be behind the ears but on the lower jaw/chin. The cord runs under the chin and the cheekpieces are attached to the extra ring at the top. This bit is effective for strong, hot horses and is mainly used by show jumping riders. This bit is not suitable for inexperienced riders.

The french link mouthpiece is a double-jointed mouthpiece with a flat insert that exerts equal pressure on the tongue. This mouthpiece has two pivot points, is shaped more to the mouth, and is a bit looser in the mouth.

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

**Due to the contagious nature of the equine disease EHV-1 and per the biosecurity measures suggested by the American Association of Equine Practitioners The Farm House will no longer accept returns on bits.**
