Ethilon 6/0 Black Monofilament Suture features a precision point reverse cutting P-1 needle in a 3/8 circle, 10.5mm configuration, designed for accurate tissue approximation in delicate surgical and oral procedures. As a non-absorbable nylon monofilament, Ethilon delivers consistent tensile strength, predictable handling, and long-term wound support wherever permanent suture retention is required.

Key Features:

• Non-Absorbable Nylon Construction: Provides reliable, long-term tensile strength retention for applications requiring permanent suture placement without in vivo degradation.
• 6/0 Fine Gauge: Ultra-fine suture diameter minimizes tissue trauma during placement, making it well suited for delicate soft tissue closure in oral and surgical procedures.
• Precision Point Reverse Cutting Needle: The P-1 needle tip is engineered for controlled, precise tissue penetration with minimal resistance, reducing the risk of tearing in sensitive tissue.
• 3/8 Circle, 10.5mm Needle: The compact curvature supports accurate needle passage in confined intraoral or surgical sites where maneuverability is limited.
• Monofilament Design: Single-strand construction reduces tissue drag, minimizes bacterial wicking, and supports smooth passage through tissue for improved handling and patient comfort.
• High Contrast Black Color: Black pigmentation provides clear visibility against tissue during placement and removal, supporting procedural accuracy and confident suture identification.
• 18" Suture Length: Standard length accommodates a wide range of closure techniques and wound configurations without excessive material waste.
• Box of 12 Suture Sets: Each box contains 12 individually packaged suture sets, providing sterile, ready-to-use units for multiple procedures per order.
