Andrea Rubber bit baby pelham used - Fager

Our expert's opinion

Designed for sensitive horses, the Andrea Rubber Bit encourages a more consistent contact and helps your horse confidently seek the bit. Its gentle feel promotes softness in the hand, making every signal smoother and more refined. This bit is ideal for a range of horses, especially those that benefit from a gentler, softer bit:

• Young or green horses

Great for horses who need to learn how to trust the bit, as it encourages acceptance and reduces tension.

• Horses that avoid or resist contact

The soft rubber encourages them to seek the bit, promoting a steadier connection confidently.

• Horses with a dry or reactive mouth

The material promotes softness and salivation, improving comfort and focus.

• Rehabilitation or retraining cases

Ideal when rebuilding trust or working through bit-related tension or behavioral issues. Give your horse the comfort it deserves with the Andrea Rubber Bit – a modern solution for riders seeking gentle, yet clear, communication. This mouthpiece has a small tongue relief to be more gentle to the tongue. The small tongue relief, combined with the gentle material, makes this bit a suitable option for horses with a sensitive tongue who can open their mouth, pull the reins, and move the tongue freely.The pelham is a fixed lever bit. Through its action on the horse's neck and chin (mandible), it has a lowering effect that varies in intensity depending on the size of the shanks and how it is fitted (two or four rein adjustment, curb chains, curb chain). It is useful on powerful and/or relatively hot-blooded horses to channel their energy. The curb chain allows the intensity of the bit to be varied. It is advisable to use curb chain guards for sensitive horses. Two Hardness Levels:

• Soft (light green color) – for young or sensitive horses who benefit from a milder feel.
• Hard (dark green color) – for horses needing clearer signals with slightly more structure.

Whether you're developing a young horse or refining the connection with an experienced partner, the Andrea Hard Rubber Bit supports a softer contact, better communication, and total comfort – every ride, every time. > Sold with curb chain
