The Easy Slide AMERA-FLEX Panel System Original design by El Dorado Saddle is a multi-layered delrin, multi fingered design. This panel has cuts and feathering in the top area along the spinal processes of the withers, and has a rounded front, making it more comfortable for all different kinds of horses. We have 3 layers of delrin each layer smaller than the other for flexibility and 1 layer of stainless steel in the rear, for the washer to slide on. After many years of repairing saddles we found that the washer wore grooves in the rear slot opening in the delrin, and the panels would not flex properly. Most of the time the cause was from the pop rivets breaking off or dirt and horsehair caked on the panels, or no lubrication. Also we changed the pop rivets to the copper rivets. We also found that the pop rivets break after time and wear. The copper rivets lasted twice the amount of time and wear of the riding time. The Stainless steel plate, Original design by Harold & Cindy Walters will eliminate the wear spots in the delrin. Which in turn will increase the life of your saddle. We changed the mounts so that the washer has more freedom of movement. All our saddles come standard with this amazing panel system. As we continue with repairs on all makes and models, we will continue our quest for perfection. Our Delrin panels are manufactured in the United States. We are a small company and we value our customers and their time. We try to give our customers a great product and we strive to get all our products and repairs out in a timely, manner.
