Description

Suture 4/0 18" Polypropylene P-3 13 mm is a nonabsorbable synthetic monofilament suture composed of isotactic crystalline polypropylene. It is designed for long-term wound support and minimal tissue reactivity. Its smooth surface and low coefficient of friction facilitate passage through tissue with minimal trauma, making it suitable for applications requiring precision and minimal scarring.

The attached P-3 needle is a 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle, ideal for penetrating tough or keratinized tissues such as skin. The needle features a non-reflective finish that improves visibility under intense surgical lighting, enhancing placement accuracy and procedural efficiency in controlled surgical environments.

This suture is often selected for skin closures, general soft tissue approximation, and procedures requiring low tissue reactivity and long-term stability. Its blue color allows for enhanced intraoperative visibility and postoperative monitoring, ensuring ease of use in high-precision surgical disciplines.
