Trust Baby Pelham Sweet Iron Jointed 16mm

Are you looking for a bit that combines swift action with a milder touch? Our Trust Baby Pelham Sweet Iron Jointed 16mm is a fantastic choice for riders needing precision and gentleness in one go.

Combines Snaffle and Bar Action
The pelham jaw piece cleverly merges the actions of a snaffle and a bar. You can ride it with one or two reins. For single rein use, a pelham strap is needed to connect the bit rings to the rings on the scissors.

Milder Effect with Shorter Claws
Unlike the regular pelham, the baby pelham has shorter claws, making it softer on your horse while still delivering the leverage you need. Perfect for strong horses or those with less room in their mouths.

Single-Jointed Bit
The single-broken bit features one pivot point, which puts less pressure on the tongue compared to a double-broken mouthpiece. This style works mainly on the layers and sides of the tongue and can even apply pressure to the palate.

Made from Trust's Sweet Iron
These bits are crafted from Trust’s Sweet Iron, noted for its unique blue colour that turns brown-grey as it rusts. This rusting (oxidation) process encourages your horse’s saliva production, making the bit more palatable and encouraging better acceptance.

Handmade in the Netherlands
Designed, developed, and handmade by the trusty team at Trust in the Netherlands, each bit undergoes meticulous quality control to ensure top performance and comfort. The slight curve in the bit enhances its fit and distribution of pressure in the horse's mouth.
