Trust Sweet Iron Eggbutt Gag – Jointed Light leverage and extra stability – the Trust Sweet Iron Eggbutt Gag Jointed combines subtle control with natural saliva stimulation and a calm position in the mouth. Perfect for sport horses that need just a bit of extra support without sharp action.
Why choose the Trust Sweet Iron Eggbutt Gag Jointed?
Sweet Iron material: Oxidizes during use and develops a sweet taste, which stimulates saliva production and improves bit acceptance.
Single-jointed (Jointed) mouthpiece: Provides a soft, direct pressure distribution over the tongue and bars without the pinching effect of traditional single-jointed bits.
Eggbutt cheeks: The fixed connections provide extra stability in the mouth, causing the bit to move less and making the action calmer and more consistent.
Gag action: By using gag reins, the rider can create light leverage for more elevation and control – ideal for horses that become a bit stronger or need extra balance.
Versatile application: Suitable for jumping, eventing, cross country, and training where extra control is desired without overloading the mouth.
