Description

Surgipro Suture, Blue, Size 4-0, 18", C-14 Needle is a sterile, nonabsorbable surgical suture designed for general soft tissue approximation and ligation. The suture is composed of an isotactic, crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene combined with polyethylene, providing long-term inert performance and biocompatibility. Its uncoated construction ensures smooth handling and reliable placement during surgical procedures.

The suture exhibits uniform diameter and maximum strand flexibility, allowing for precise tissue manipulation and minimal resistance during passage. Its design minimizes memory and reduces the occurrence of pig-tailing, enhancing handling efficiency and facilitating smooth knot formation. These characteristics contribute to predictable performance and ease of use in a variety of surgical applications.

Surgipro sutures provide excellent knot security with snug, flattened knots that maintain consistent tensile strength. The combination of flexibility, uniformity, and reliable knotting ensures secure tissue approximation and reduces the risk of knot slippage or wound dehiscence. The suture’s durability and mechanical performance make it suitable for both superficial and deep tissue closure.
