Description

The Silk Braided Black Suture, size 6-0 with an 18-inch length and P3 needle, is a high-quality, nonabsorbable surgical suture designed for use in various medical procedures. Known as Perma-Hand, this suture is composed of organic protein, offering a reliable and durable option for surgical stitching. It is specifically processed to remove natural waxes and gums, ensuring a clean and smooth suture material.

The suture is coated with a special wax mixture that enhances its handling characteristics and knot security. This coating contributes to the suture's smooth passage through tissues, reducing friction and facilitating ease of use during surgical procedures. The wax mixture also helps in securing knots effectively, minimizing the risk of slippage and ensuring reliable closure of incisions.

Processed for optimum handling, the Silk Braided Suture offers excellent knot security without excessive capillarity. This feature ensures that the suture remains securely in place while minimizing tissue fluid absorption, which could otherwise compromise the integrity of the suture line.

The black color of the suture provides high visibility against tissue, aiding in precise placement and improved surgical outcomes. This suture is an ideal choice for various applications where a nonabsorbable, reliable suture is required for long-term tissue support and closure.
