The suture features a monofilament construction, enhancing smooth passage through tissue while reducing drag.
Features:
- Absorbable material minimizes long-term presence in tissue
- Monofilament design ensures smooth handling and low tissue trauma
- Polyglycolic acid (PGA) offers high tensile strength during initial healing
- Coated for improved knot security and ease of use
Specifications:
- Needle Type: 3/8 Circle Precision Reverse Cutting
- Suture Size: 5-0
- Length: Standard suture length (exact length confirmed per package)
- Absorption: Typically absorbed within 60–90 days
