Trust Sweet Iron Elliptical Pelham Bit

This bit can be used with one or two reins. You can also use a pelham strap, which connects the bit ring with the ring a the bottom of the sides. A pelham strap connects the two reins, so just one rein is needed. The effect is a bit softer than riding with two reins. The pelham is used in combination with a curb chain.
The pelham is often used with strong horses. Because of the leverage effect created by the sides, the bit is fairly sharp. By using this bit it’s easier to ride a horse rounder in the neck. The longer the sides, the sharper it is.
Sweet iron will rust when in contact with (air) humidity. The surface rust tastes sweet and naturally stimulates saliva production. This will cause the horse to salivate more which will encourage the horse to take more contact.
The process of rusting (oxidation) changes the blue color of the Trust-bit to a brownish-grey. A sweet iron bit will develop an orange-brown rust layer on the mouthpiece if it is temporarily not used. This is easily removed by wiping it off with a damp cloth.
