Stubben Steeltec 2242 Single Jointed Rubber Covered Pelham - 5"

The Stubben Steeltec 2242 Pelham with a single jointed rubber cover is designed to provide a gentle yet effective sensitive aid for the horse. This Pelham allows for easier communication between the horse and rider, with a mouthpiece thickness of only 16mm - thinner than most commercial rubber bits which are typically 20mm or more. This thinner mouthpiece reduces the chance of rubbing and promotes a comfortable fit in the horse's mouth. It is important to note that rubber covered bits may not be suitable for horses that tend to chew on the bit with their teeth, as this can cause damage to the rubber cover. Benefits of the Pelham bit:• Can be used with one or two reins Pull and leverage effect can be applied as required Special Benefits of the Cheeks:• The special features of a Stübben STEELtec Pelham are its short shanks of only 2 inches. This reduces the leverage, but allows a quicker more direct action between reins and mouthpiece. The immediate response is especially helpful when show jumping, particularly if the course has many tight turns.  The flat curb chain hooks prevent the horse’s lips from being pinched. Furthermore our curb chain with its flat hooks is easier to adjust to the horse’s chin groove. Stübben Steeltec quality:• No rough edges that could hurt the horse's mouth Long durability due to selected materials A special processing technology ensures that bit holes and link pieces remain intact for longer
