The Sweet Iron bits are made of steel and have a recognizable blue color. Sweet Iron will rust when it comes into contact with (air) humidity, the surface rust tastes sweet and naturally stimulates the saliva production. This will cause the horse to salivate more, which in turn will encourage a better acceptance of the bit. The process of rusting (oxidation) changes the blue color of the TRUST bits to a brownish-grey. This is the desired effect of the Sweet Iron bits. If a Sweet Iron bit is not used for a while, an orange-brown rust layer may form on the mouthpiece. Simply remove this by wiping the bit with a damp cloth.
Sweet Iron bits are suitable for all horses. Sweet Iron helps the horse to salivate more, which will encourage a better acceptance of the bit.
The Sweet Iron collection has the most variation in mouthpieces, each with its own specific effect.
There are also lesser known mouthpieces in the TRUST collection, each with its own effect, such as the waterford, cherry roller and the brass ring.
For example, a waterford can help to stop a horse leaning on the bit. A cherry roller discourages the horse from taking hold of the bit and the brass ring stimulates the horse to play with the bit.
