When selecting the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Nathe bits are selected with the greatest care and made from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Nathe Pelham 20 mm bit with flexible bar and short shanks from the Nathe range today:

The Nathe Pelham 20 mm bit with flexible bar and short shanks is made of plastic and equipped with Pelham side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The hardness of the mouthpiece material is rather soft, i.e. flexible.

Bit thickness

Side piece

Pelham

The Pelham is a popular bit with short or long shanks. When the reins are taken up, the bit acts on the mouth, lower jaw, and poll. Depending on the leverage of the shanks, a different and more immediate bit angle in the mouth can be achieved. Possible use in horses that have difficulty bending at the poll, in "hot" horses, or in horses that require clear action in critical situations. The Pelham should only be used by experienced riders.

Mouthpiece

Bar bits

A bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A bar mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit material

Plastic

Food-safe plastic is used for bits, which means no plasticizers are used and it is well tolerated by horses. The particularly smooth texture ensures that the bit can glide easily in the mouth, even with little saliva flow.

Manufacturer information

Nathe

Nathe bits are characterized by a smooth surface, as they are made of high-quality thermoplastic. This can increase satisfaction and willingness to perform in sensitive and mouth-sensitive horses. The material is anti-allergenic, food-safe, solvent-free, and contains no plasticizers. High flexibility of the mouthpiece is ensured by the temperature-neutral properties of thermoplastic.
