Lock Collars

The 1/4" lock collar is adjustable with a hex head. This can be positioned any where along the cable. It sits in the middle of the wear leather. This wear leather acts as a grip for the latigo. The latigo then doesn't walk away from position. For years we've used this system and still do. We just recently developed the Billet System. We use both still, but have found the Billet System is much easier to adjust immediately.

You could use either. We use the nylon because it's easy to wash once it been sweat through and gets dirty. But we have lots of saddle makers who use latigo. The important thing to remember is using the wear leather. Just some scrap chap leather that acts as a grip and protection for both the cable and the latigo.

Do you recommend a nylon latigo or leather if your using the lock collar system?
