HOLLOW SS PELHAM BIT 23 MM STAINLESS STEEL BLACK

Hollow Pelham Bit with Curb Chain - Amahorse Umbria Equitazione - Hollow Mouthpiece - Shank Length: 7 cm

This bit acts on multiple parts of the horse's mouth:

• Bars: Pressure is applied to the bars by the mouthpiece and is directly proportional to the length of the shank. The curb chain and the presence of a high port further increase pressure on the bars.
• Tongue: Pressure on the tongue is applied by the mouthpiece and varies depending on the thickness and shape of the mouthpiece.
• Palate: Pressure on the palate only occurs when the mouthpiece has a high port.
• Poll: Pressure on the poll varies depending on the ratio between the upper and lower parts of the shank. All Pelham bits apply some degree of pressure on the poll.
• Chin Groove: Pressure is applied to the chin groove by the curb chain when the curb rein is used.
• Sides of the Jaw: The Pelham can exert some pressure on the sides of the jaw, which varies based on the length of the shanks
