Members Caroline Posted April 12, 2011 Members Report Posted April 12, 2011 I am looking for a source of 100% wool that is 1 inch thick to buy by the yard. Like the 5 Star saddle pads. Who out there sells thick wool padding? Thanks, Caroline Quote
Moderator Art Posted April 12, 2011 Moderator Report Posted April 12, 2011 You are talking about wool Felt? I know, anything other than wool felt is an oxymoron, but they have synthetic felt now; it doesn't take heat well. Aetna Felt here. Sutherland Felt here. I've always dealt with Aetna. You have to know the density you want. F-1 weighs in at 16 lbs a sq yard, all the way down to F-26 that weighs around 7 or 8 lbs/sq yard. Those are in 1" thicknesses. F1 is very very hard, it doesn't bend at all, the higher numbers are more pliable. Hope that is what you need. Art I am looking for a source of 100% wool that is 1 inch thick to buy by the yard.

Who out there sells thick wool padding? Thanks, Caroline I recommend Buffalo Felt,especially for quality and service. They are very tuned to the equine pad industry and they will also custom cut to your die/specs.
