Description
Surgical Suture Polypropylene 5-0, 18" Thread With 13 mm 3/8 Reverse Cut Blue is a sterile, synthetic, nonabsorbable monofilament suture composed of polypropylene, a thermoplastic polymer known for its high chemical inertness and biocompatibility. It is designed for procedures requiring long-term tensile strength and minimal tissue reaction, particularly in external and cardiovascular applications.
The suture retains tensile strength indefinitely, making it suitable for permanent tissue support. Its monofilament configuration provides a smooth surface that minimizes tissue drag and trauma during passage. The polymer's stability in biological environments ensures no degradation over time, reducing the risk of inflammatory response or infection.
The attached 13 mm 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle is manufactured from stainless steel and engineered for high precision. Its reverse cutting edge facilitates clean penetration through tough tissues such as skin, minimizing tissue distortion. The 18-inch thread length allows effective handling in both superficial and intermediate-depth closures.
