The Vulcanite Port Pelham Bit, known for its vulcanized rubber composition is reinforced with a steel core proving to be both durable and reliable. The Vulcanized rubber, also known as Bakelite is a material strengthened through the vulcanization process and provides resilience, ensuring the bit withstands the rigors of regular use. This Pelham bit is distinguished by its ported design, which offers space for the horse's tongue, thereby reducing pressure on the sensitive areas of the mouth. This design is particularly advantageous for horses with less room in their mouth or those prone to discomfort with more traditional bits. The integration of a steel core within the vulcanized rubber structure is a significant feature. This reinforcement ensures the bit's integrity and safety. Unlike standard rubber bits that may heat up and cause discomfort in horses with less saliva, the Bakelite material in this bit maintains a consistent temperature. This characteristic is crucial in preventing the risk of discomfort or potential rubbing on the horse's tongue. Material: Vulcanite (Bakelite) Mouth Thickness: 18mm
