Trust Sweet Iron Baby Pelham French Link Copper Plate 16mm 14.5

Trust Sweet Iron Baby Pelham French Link Copper Plate Bit 16mm 14.5

The bit is 20mm thick, measured at its thickest point in the horse's cheek area. It is therefore a rather thick mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold bloods 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 features of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Bits from Trust Equestrian are selected with the greatest care and made from the best materials. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Baby Pelham French Link Copper Plate Bit 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The Trust Sweet Iron Baby Pelham French Link Copper Plate Bit 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Baby Pelham cheeks. The mouthpiece of this bit is a French Link, an eight-shaped plate as the center piece of a double-jointed mouthpiece. The mouthpiece has a mouthpiece size of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

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

Cheekpiece

Baby Pelham

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

Mouthpiece

French Link

The French Link mouthpiece has two hinge points and an eight-shaped plate in the middle that exerts even pressure on the tongue. This mouthpiece has two hinge points, is more shaped towards the mouth and lies a little more loosely in the horse's mouth.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

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