Description

Perma-Hand Suture, Black, Size 6-0, 18", C-2 Needle is a nonabsorbable surgical suture designed for precise soft tissue approximation. Composed of an organic protein, this suture provides strength and durability required in delicate surgical procedures. The suture material undergoes extensive processing to remove natural waxes and gums, ensuring a smooth surface and minimizing tissue irritation during use.

The coating applied to the suture is a special wax mixture that enhances handling characteristics. This coating improves knot security and facilitates smooth passage through tissue without excessive drag. The controlled capillarity reduces the risk of bacterial wicking, maintaining a sterile field and lowering the potential for infection.

Equipped with a reverse cutting needle, the suture ensures efficient tissue penetration with minimal trauma. The C-2 needle design provides sharpness and strength, suitable for use in ophthalmic, plastic, and microsurgical procedures where precision is critical. The black color of the suture improves visibility against tissue, aiding surgeons in placement and knot tying.
