Trust Bit Sweet Iron Baby Pelham Flat Bar 16mm 12.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Baby Pelham flat bar 16mm 12.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20 millimeters at its thickest point. This makes it a rather thick mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is typically between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold-blooded horses, and Shire Horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

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

The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of the bits. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Baby Pelham flat bar 16mm 12.5 bit from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

Bit Thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for sporty thoroughbreds.

Sidepiece

Baby Pelham

The Baby Pelham is a variation of the Pelham, ideal for accustoming horses to leverage in the poll, as it has shorter shanks. This significantly reduces the leverage of the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Baby Pelham flat bar 16mm 12.5 and makes it more comfortable for the horse.

Mouthpiece

Straight Bar Bits

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

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed 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.
