Description

Precision Point Perma-Hand Surgical Suture 3/0, 18", PS-1 Needle is a sterile, nonabsorbable surgical suture composed of high-quality organic silk protein. This suture undergoes meticulous processing to remove natural waxes and gums, which enhances its cleanliness and reduces tissue irritation during surgical use. The organic silk material provides excellent tensile strength and reliable performance.

The suture is coated with a specially formulated wax mixture that optimizes handling characteristics. This coating facilitates smooth passage through tissue while minimizing friction and tissue drag. It also enhances knot security by providing consistent surface characteristics, allowing surgeons to achieve secure and stable knots with minimal slippage. 

The PS-1 needle is a precision reverse cutting needle designed for efficient tissue penetration and controlled needle trajectory. Its 3/8 circle curvature and fine point enable precise handling, making it suitable for delicate and general soft tissue approximation. The needle’s stainless steel construction ensures strength and resistance to bending or breaking during surgical procedures, further enhancing surgical confidence.
