Product Details
Extra sharp cutting edges on the needle reduce tissue drag and produce a precise, smooth penetration with minimal trauma. Needle channel is fitted to the specific size of the suture material. Excellent handling and tying characteristics. Reverse cutting.
Plain gut (catgut): Made of first quality raw material, catgut has extremely high tensile strength. Every strand is precision polished to a uniform diameter, permitting smooth and secure knotting.
Chromic gut (catgut): Produced with the same precision and quality materials as plain gut, plus treated with chromic acid salts to decrease tissue reactivity and provide a slower absorption rate.
Black braided silk: Noncapillary silk has excellent handling and tying characteristics. Modern braiding technique provides a uniform smooth surface and a greater tensile strength.
Nylon black monofilament: A non-absorbable polyamide suture with characteristic high tensile strength. The uniform smooth surface permits easy passage through tissue.
