For smooth compact connected manifolds with strictly convex boundary, no conjugate points and a hyperbolic trapped set, we prove an equivalence principle concerning the injectivity of the X-ray transform $I_m$ on symmetric solenoidal tensors and the surjectivity of an operator ${\pi_m}_*$ on the set of solenoidal tensors. This allows us to establish the injectivity of the X-ray transform on solenoidal tensors of any order in the case of a surface satisfying these assumptions.
