Expert opinion
: The Stockman bit is an alternative to the pelham. Several installations of the reins are possible in order to adjust the pressure. The branches are longer than on the pelham but the fold reduces the pressure and allows the horse to graze the grass with the bit. This is a popular bit for endurance riding. The "Barrel 20" bit is a bit of the blocked bit family with a limited movement of the bit to about 5% of movement. It avoids the risk of tongue pinching while protecting the palate. Its arched shape allows to distribute the pressure between the bars and the tongue. This bit helps to obtain a better contact while ensuring that the horse does not lean too much. It also offers independent action of each rein, which can allow one shoulder to be lifted more than the other by allowing one ring to rotate independently of the other.
BARREL THICKNESS
*Unless mentioned in the options, the thickness of the barrel is :
| Size (mm) | Barrel thickness (mm) |
| < 115 | 12 |
| 115 - 130 | 14 |
| > 130 | 16 |
Please note ! This bit is small, we advise you to take 1 size above.
Material
Sweet iron : Sweet iron alloy oxidizes when in contact with the humidity of the mouth and the air. The oxidation brings a sweet taste which naturally stimulates the production of saliva. This corresponds to the effect of a sugar that is given to the horse at the beginning of the session but allows to diffuse this sweet taste throughout the work. Consequently, this alloy allows a good acceptance of the bit and helps the horse to get in touch with its mouthpiece. The oxidation modifies the aspect of the bit during the sessions.
