Trust Bit Sweet Iron Pelham flat bar 16mm 14.5

Trust Sweet Iron Pelham Bit Straight Bar 16mm 14.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its widest point. So it is a rather thick mouthpiece.

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

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

The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Sweet Iron Pelham Bit Straight Bar 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

Bit Thickness

Side Piece

Pelham

The Pelham is a popular bit with short or long shanks. When taking up the reins, the bit acts on the mouth, lower jaw, and poll. Depending on the leverage of the shanks, a varying degree and immediate angle of the bit in the mouth can be achieved. Possible use for horses that have difficulty going through the poll, for "hot" horses, or for horses that require significant influence in critical situations. The Pelham should only be used by experienced riders.

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 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.
