Description

The Suture, Nylon 3-0 Black 1X30 FS-1 is a nonabsorbable surgical suture composed of monofilament nylon, a polyamide polymer known for its high tensile strength and durability. The uniform, smooth surface of the suture allows for seamless passage through tissue, reducing friction and minimizing trauma. Its nonabsorbable nature ensures long-term wound support, making it suitable for applications requiring extended tensile strength without the risk of degradation over time.

Equipped with a reverse cutting needle, this suture provides superior penetration through dense or tough tissues. The three-edge cutting design of the needle enhances its ability to pass through tissue with minimal resistance, reducing tissue distortion and ensuring a clean, secure closure. The FS-1 needle, with a 3/8 circle curvature, offers controlled handling, making it ideal for use in delicate areas requiring precision.

This suture is widely used in dermatological, plastic, and general surgical procedures where precise wound closure is necessary. Its monofilament structure minimizes capillarity, reducing the risk of bacterial contamination and infection. Its smooth surface facilitates easy knot tying and secure knot retention, preventing suture loosening post-surgery.
