Horse Gullets - Saddle Fit, Comfort & Adjustability

Correct saddle fit is essential for your horse’s comfort and performance. Horse gullets allow you to adjust the width of your saddle to suit your horse’s changing shape, ensuring freedom of movement, reduced pressure, and a secure fit. Whether you’re riding dressage, jumping, or general purpose, an adjustable gullet system means one saddle can work across multiple horses or adapt as your horse develops.

FAQs About Horse Gullets

How do I know which gullet size my horse needs?

Use a Tekna gullet plate fitting gauge to measure your horse’s wither and back shape. This ensures you select the correct plate size for comfort and balance.

Can I change the gullet plate myself?

Yes – Tekna saddles are designed with interchangeable gullet systems. With a screwdriver and gullet screws, you can easily swap plates at home.

What’s the difference between Gen 1 and Gen 2 Tekna gullets?

Gen 1 plates are designed for earlier Tekna models, while Gen 2 fit newer saddles with slightly updated tree designs. Always check your saddle model before ordering.

Do I need a different gullet for dressage and jumping saddles?

Yes – AP/Dressage gullets and Jumping gullets are shaped differently to suit each saddle type. Make sure you choose the right style for your saddle.

Why not just buy a new saddle instead of changing gullets?

Adjustable gullets are a cost-effective solution, letting your saddle adapt as your horse’s shape changes. This avoids the expense of buying multiple saddles.
