Description

Nurolon Suture, 8-18", Black, CT-2 Needle, Size 0 is a synthetic, nonabsorbable suture composed of nylon filaments braided tightly to provide high tensile strength. The suture is coated to enhance handling properties, resulting in improved glide and reduced tissue drag. The black coloration increases visibility during surgical procedures, allowing for precise placement and control.

The CT-2 needle is a 3/8 circle taper point needle made of stainless steel, designed for penetrating delicate tissues with minimal trauma. Its shape and sharpness facilitate smooth passage through soft tissues such as muscle and subcutaneous layers, ensuring effective approximation and ligation.

Nurolon sutures closely mimic the handling characteristics of traditional silk sutures but surpass silk in terms of tensile strength and reduced tissue reactivity. The synthetic composition minimizes inflammatory response and tissue irritation, promoting better healing outcomes compared to natural fiber sutures.
