The Sweet Iron 2.5 Eggbutt Slow Twist Jointed by Trust is a milder version of the 3-ring (Pessoa) bit. It offers light leverage depending on rein placement. Ideal for horses that become strong during jumping, grab the bit, or pull through the rider’s hand. The fixed eggbutt rings provide a more direct response to the rider’s aids.

This single-jointed bit has one hinge point and applies pressure mainly to the bars and sides of the tongue, with possible influence on the palate. It offers less tongue pressure than double-jointed bits and is often seen as a standard choice.

Sweet Iron bits are made of blue steel that forms a layer of surface rust when exposed to air humidity. This rust has a naturally sweet taste, which encourages salivation and helps the horse accept the bit more easily. The diameter of the bit is 16 mm.
