What is ThinLine® Technology

 
Most equine products work on a compression basis, meaning they compress then spring back or, like gel, move away from pressure. What makes ThinLine unique is its technology. ThinLine is an open-cell foam which moves shock, weight, and heat laterally. Beginning as a liquid, microscopic cells are poured into a mold then polarized so each cell lies end to end creating a tunnel. Another layer is poured on top and polarized in a new direction. In each ThinLine pad, this process is repeated hundreds of times creating a honey comb matrix. This process allows ThinLine to absorb shock, distribute weight and ventilate. ThinLine products also carry tensile strength so that pressure is evenly distributed; filling in hollow points and relieving pressure points. Unlike compression based foams ThinLine never bottoms out.

ThinLine's unique texture and suppleness allows the product to mold. When warmed to body temperature ThinLine products will mold to the horses back, leg or girth area creating a custom fit. When returned to room temperature, ThinLine returns to its original shape. The life span of this process is typically 7-10 years. All ThinLine products are infused with active USDA approved anti-fungal and anti-microbial agents rated USDA approved to last 7 years.

In addition to it's unique method of distributing shock, ThinLine differs from traditional products. Vs.neoprene: ThinLine will not generate heat and has never caused a skin reaction in horses. Vs. gel: ThinLine is lightweight, breathable, and will not move away from pressure points. Vs. Leather: ThinLine is easier to clean and care for and its anti-fungal agents keep horses' skin healthy while providing the best impact protection.

ThinLine products protect, are non-slip, will not gather dirt, generate heat or transfer skin diseases

Superior Shock Absorption

ThinLine technology makes it the most shock absorptive material on the market. How to test it against your products: Drop a golf ball on your pad. Drop a golf ball on a ThinLine pad. The golf ball will be like dead weight on the ThinLine pad.

Breathability

100% ThinLine products ventilate keeping tendons and girth areas cool reducing the possibility of injury.

No Slip

In addition to everything else it does, ThinLine saddle pads are the best no slip products available. Add a ThinLine girth and your tack will remain perfectly stable. Boots do not slip on horses legs, even when traveling through water.

Augments Saddle Fit

The only pad recommended and vended by over 90% of UK certified Master Saddlers residing in the United States. ThinLine will not alter custom saddle fit but will aid in making the not so perfect fit better. ThinLine carries an entire line of shimming products designed by saddle fitters to create better saddle fit or to use for quick tack changes.

Anti-Microbial

ThinLine is infused with active anti-fungal, antimicrobial agents allowing use on multiple horses. ThinLine products will aid in healthy skin reducing rain rot (scratches).

Durability

7-10 years is the average life of a ThinLine saddle pad.

Drawbacks?

There are no known drawbacks to using ThinLine products. The only negative is that the products look so simple riders often wonder how it could do so much. This is why we offer our free trial, money back guarantee. You will see a difference in you and your horse.
