The curb chain is included. It is mainly used for jumping and eventing, on a horse that needs to be brought back onto the bit without moving up to a double bridle. The single-jointed mouthpiece acts on the bars and corners of the mouth, with a slight pinching effect on the palate when both reins are used together. It is the most common mouthpiece, one that most horses are already familiar with. The Ergonomic range is shaped to match the anatomy of the mouth: the mouthpiece tapers inward, where space is limited, to distribute pressure more evenly. It is made of \u003cem\u003esweet iron\u003c\/em\u003e, a mild steel that develops a slightly sweet taste when it comes into contact with saliva: the horse chews more, salivates more, and accepts the bit better. The double-jointed versions also feature a copper insert, making them even more palatable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✨ Key features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ single-jointed mouthpiece, 14 mm diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ shank length: 7.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ sweet iron mouthpiece: sweet taste, salivation and chewing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ mouthpiece tapers inward to distribute pressure more evenly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ stainless steel shanks, with no free nickel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ very high resistance to corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ curb chain included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e📋 Technical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e pelham\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMouthpiece:\u003c\/strong\u003e single-jointed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMouthpiece diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMouthpiece material:\u003c\/strong\u003e sweet iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShanks:\u003c\/strong\u003e stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupplied with:\u003c\/strong\u003e curb chain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🐎 Why choose this product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSweet iron is not just a catalogue claim: it is a surface that is intentionally allowed to oxidize and develops a sweet taste when it comes into contact with saliva. A horse that finds its bit pleasant chews, salivates, and maintains a soft contact. The trade-off is intentional—this metal is softer than stainless steel and develops a patina quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Care instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse with clean water after each use and dry briefly. \u003cstrong\u003eDo not try to remove the bluish patina or rust spots: they are intentional\u003c\/strong\u003e; this is what gives sweet iron its sweet taste. Do not use abrasive products or a dishwasher. Sweet iron is softer than stainless steel: it shows marks more quickly, without affecting its use. Check the joints for wear regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComposition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSweet iron mouthpiece (carbon and manganese steel), stainless steel shanks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kavalkade","offers":[{"title":"125","offer_id":58566915621199,"sku":"0704441250400","price":75.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"135","offer_id":58566915653967,"sku":"0704441350400","price":75.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"145","offer_id":58566915686735,"sku":"0704441450400","price":75.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/70444.jpg?v=1787697371","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en-ie\/products\/pelham-ergonomic-sweet-iron-14-mm-simple-brisure-branches-longues","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
