STEELE EQUI-FIT FLEXIBLE TREES
Tradition & State-of-the-Art
The Ultimate Combination...

Steele Saddle Tree Company has a tradition of embracing the latest in technology, materials, and design while retaining the
best of the past and present. We don't do things a certain way because it's always been done that way. "That way" in our opinion
can always change for the better as we discover new technology and design to benefit the horse and rider. We have stayed at
the forefront of the saddle tree industry for five generations, totalling one hundred fifty years by combining tradition and state-of-
the-art in strategic proportions.

In our ongoing effort to improve our product and utilize the latest developments to benefit the horse, rider, and saddler, we
 
Steele now offers flexible tree that
Bends with your horse.  Equi-fit Flexible trees attains its flexibility by combining a traditional
rigid fork and cantle together with a state-of-the-art foundation in lieu of the conventional bars and ground seat. This foundation,
molded of a material similar to a rubber-like work boot sole, allows the assembled tree to bend along with your horse's spine
while the rigid fork and cantle maintain proper bar angle and spread.   
Equi
-fit Flex eliminates soring due to bridging and pressure points associated with conventional rigid trees automatically
conforms to an uneven back and automatically adjusts to the contours of your individual horse.

...True Flexibility.
The equifit flex  is not a modified skirting system. Neither does it have the limited flexibility of rawhide covered saddle trees or
one piece molded saddle forms, both of which flex only under extreme pressures not created during normal riding. Equi-
fit Flex
is designed to easily flex the entire range of your horse's movement and gives your horse the freedom of bareback riding with
the security and weight distribution of a conventional saddle tree.   


...State-of-the-Art.
The
foundation is molded of a specially developed elastomer. This state-of-the-art material has a precisely calculated
resilience for ideal weight distribution without pressure points. It has memory to maintain correct shape and retains nails better
than wood. The molding process ensures that every part is uniform and symmetrical. Trees are always square, level, and
without twist. The seat design recognizes and compensates for the differences in male and female pelvic structures giving
unprecedented comfort and support for all

1) Construction: Conventional four parts – fork, cantle and two bars. A rigid
fork and cantle assembled together with flexible bars. The rigid fork and cantle
maintain proper bar rafter angle and spread while the flexible bars allow the
tree to bend along with your horse’s spine.

2) Materials: Forks and cantles
are all fiberglass-covered wood.
