Care For Your Pad

Keeping your Equitex Pad pristine is effortless. Machine washable at 86°F (delicate cycle) with a max spin of 600 rpm, these pads resist dirt and hair accumulation, reducing the need for frequent washing. After riding, simply turn the pad upside down to air dry. Once dry, brush or wipe off any loose hairs or salt residue. For competition pads, they can even be hosed down or jet washed to achieve a pristine finish.

No. 1 Impact Absorption: Targeted Lift: 2cm Front / 4cm Rear Foam: Built-In Back Support: Non-Slip: No Straps: Durable: Easy Care: Correctional Half Pad

Equitex Correctional Half Pad – Built-In Rear Lift for Saddle Balance & Muscle Development

Designed for jumping, eventing, and everyday training, the Equitex Correctional Half Pad features 2 cm foam in the front and a 4 cm lift at the rear, providing targeted support to rebalance the saddle and relieve pressure under the cantle. This makes it ideal for horses with muscle atrophy behind the shoulder or underdeveloped toplines.

Key Features:

  • Built-in lift at the rear – 4 cm thickness supports balance for horses needing help behind. 
  • 2 cm front foam – Keeps contact close while allowing rear elevation. 
  • 90% pressure reduction – Foam compresses and reforms instantly to maintain comfort. 
  • Promotes muscle development – Supports rehab and training goals. 
  • No shims required – Ready-to-use design, no inserts or adjustments needed. 
  • Non-slip & strap-free – Stable under the saddle, no shifting and slipping. 
  • Ultra-breathable & easy care – Machine washable and fast drying. 
  • Durable for daily use – Built for high-volume barns and pro trainers. 

Instructions for Use:

Place the correctional half pad directly on the horse’s back to ensure full contact and benefit. It can be used on its own or with a thin cotton saddle pad on top. This setup ensures proper spinal clearance, sweat-wicking, coat protection, and shock absorption.

Ideal For:

  • Horses with muscle atrophy or uneven toplines
  • Saddles that sit too low in the back
  • Trainers and rehab programs working on topline development
  • Riders who need immediate saddle balance without using shims

Correctional Half Pads that reflect all the outstanding benefits of Equitex saddle pads:

🐎 Unparalleled Back Protection: Our responsive foam inner core compensates for imperfections and expertly prevents pressure points, ensuring flawless weight distribution.

🌬️ Breathable and Moisture-Wicking: Engineered with the market's most breathable and moisture-wicking materials, Equitex Saddle Pads keep your horse cool and dry. Beneath, the high-quality TechVelvet surface resists dirt accumulation and boasts quick-drying, antibacterial properties.

🌦️ Built to Last: No matter the conditions—sweat, cold, heat, or rain—Equitex Pads remain soft and smooth.

🚫 Non-Slip: Silica grips firmly anchor the pad to the saddle, eliminating any unwanted movement in all directions. Notably, they won't adhere to your horse's coat. Ideal for barrel-shaped horses with minimal withers, these pads require NO STRAPS to stay securely in place.

🐴 Spine Clearance: Engineered with a generous 5cm clearance over the wither and spine, Equitex Pads maintain this vital clearance at all times, thanks to their slip-resistant design. Check your horse's spine after every ride—it will remain dry, even on scorching days, thanks to the continuous airflow provided by our pads.

🧼 Easy Care: Keeping your Equitex Pad pristine is effortless. Machine washable at 30 degrees (delicate cycle) with a max spin of 600 rpm, these pads resist dirt and hair accumulation, reducing the need for frequent washing. After riding, simply turn the pad upside down to air dry. Once dry, brush or wipe off any loose hairs or salt residue.
