Trust Sweet Iron Wideport Segundo Eggbutt

We love this bit because it really deters horses from leaning on the bit or getting their tongue over the bit.

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

The Wideport Segundo is a double-jointed mouthpiece with a port. Unlike the other mouthpieces with tongue arches, this mouthpiece can move freely creating some lateral flexibility. Because of the port, there is less pressure on the tongue, but it is distributed over the layers. There are sharper angles on the tongue arch, which creates extra pressure points on the tongue. Due to the movement of the tongue port, horses generally find it distributed over the layers.  

The Sweet Iron bits are made of steel and have a recognizable blue color. Sweet Iron develops surface rust 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 rusting process (oxidation) changes the blue color of the TRUST bits to brown-gray.
