The Trust Equestrian bit range provides gentle yet effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Baby Pelham French Bar 16mm 12.5 bit from the Trust Equestrian range in a little more detail today:

The Trust Sweet Iron Baby Pelham French Bar 16mm 12.5 bit is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Babypelham cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar. The bit has a size of 12.5 centimeters. The 12.5cm mouthpiece size is usually ideal for Thoroughbreds.

Bit Thickness

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

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm, and particularly large warmbloods, draft horses and Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.

When selecting 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.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Trust Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed so that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.

The Dutch bit manufacturer Trust Equestrian is characterized by its innovative spirit and craftsmanship. With the Inno Sense and Sweet Iron series, they are breaking new ground. The products are continuously developed by Trust's technical teams and strictly quality-controlled.

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.

Cheekpiece

Babypelham

The Baby Pelham is a variant of the Pelham, which is ideal for accustoming horses to the leverage effect on the poll, as it has shorter shanks. These significantly reduce the leverage effect of the Trust Sweet Iron Baby Pelham French Bar 16mm 12.5 bit, making it more comfortable for the horse.
