Trust Bit Sweet Iron Baby Pelham Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 14.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Baby Pelham Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 14.5

The bit is 20mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it a rather thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold bloods and Shires Horses rather 18mm and larger.

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 palate.

The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and function of the bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Baby Pelham Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Baby Pelham Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Baby Pelham side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a Dr. Bristol, meaning a plate as the center piece of a double-jointed mouthpiece. The bit has a mouthpiece size of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 14.5cm is usually ideal for very large warmbloods.

Side Piece

Baby Pelham

The Baby Pelham is a variation of the Pelham, which is ideal for accustoming horses to the leverage effect on the poll, as it has shorter shanks. This significantly reduces the leverage effect of the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Baby Pelham Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 14.5 and is more comfortable for the horse.

Mouthpiece

Dr. Bristol

The Dr. Bristol mouthpiece is a double-jointed mouthpiece with a flat center piece. The center plate in a Dr. Bristol is angled and flat-edged. It acts mainly on the tongue with a sharp effect due to the straight, angled plate and with a lesser angle on the bars. This mouthpiece helps with strong horses.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
