When exposed to humid air and saliva, it develops a surface oxidation with a sweet taste that naturally stimulates salivation: the horse chews more and accepts the bit more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ A single joint that locks as it folds: under rein tension, the mouthpiece then acts like a straight mouthpiece, reinforcing its action. As soon as the tension eases, it becomes a single-jointed mouthpiece again.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Combined-leverage shank: it acts both on the poll, behind the ears, and on the chin. It can be used with one or two reins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Corrective mouthpiece, designed for horses that lean on the hand or run through the contact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e📋 Technical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Pelham bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Sweet Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece: locking jointed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMouthpiece thickness: 16 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes (mm): 115 \/ 125 \/ 135 \/ 145\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🐎 Why choose this product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt gives you two bits in one: a single-jointed mouthpiece when the hand is light, and a straight mouthpiece as soon as the horse leans on it. The horse discovers for itself that pulling is not beneficial.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🧴 Usage advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚠️ Bit size is given in millimetres: this is the width of the mouthpiece from one ring to the other. A 125 measures 12.5 cm. Measure your horse's mouth with a bit sizer, or use the measurement of the bit it wears: too wide, the bit moves around and pinches; too narrow, it tightens the corners of the mouth. ⚠️ With a single rein, a Pelham rounding must be fitted between the large ring and the lower ring. A curb chain is essential. ⚠️ The blue colour turns silver-grey or brown-grey with use, and an orange film appears when the bit is left unused: this is normal Sweet Iron behaviour, not a defect. A wipe with a damp cloth is enough to remove it. This oxidation is not harmful.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TRUST","offers":[{"title":"115","offer_id":58647406215503,"sku":"E28366L050115","price":179.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"125","offer_id":58647406248271,"sku":"E28366L050125","price":179.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"135","offer_id":58647406281039,"sku":"E28366L050135","price":179.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"145","offer_id":58647406313807,"sku":"E28366L050145","price":179.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/0029\/9177\/files\/E28366_L050_01_06452982-f2f9-4128-b356-ab9fe8e8dbb9.jpg?v=1788643703","url":"https:\/\/selleriebucephale.com\/en\/products\/mors-trust-sweet-iron-pelham-a-brisure-verrouillee","provider":"Sellerie Bucéphale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
