The L886T ETHILON® Sutures are trusted surgical sutures designed for high-precision wound closure. Manufactured by Ethicon, ETHILON® sutures are composed of a monofilament nylon material that offers smooth, reliable performance during general soft tissue approximation and ligation. The combination of size 0-0, a 48-inch length, and a curved cutting needle ensures optimal control and handling in a variety of surgical procedures.
Key Features:
- High-Performance Nylon Monofilament: ETHILON® sutures are made from a non-absorbable nylon material, offering excellent tensile strength for wound support. The monofilament construction ensures a smooth passage through tissue, minimizing trauma and enhancing precision.
- Size 0-0 for Strong Closure: The size 0-0 suture is ideal for cases requiring strong, durable wound closure, making it suitable for use in high-tension areas or larger incisions where greater strength is necessary.
- 48" Length for Versatility: With a 48-inch length, these sutures provide enough material to handle larger wound closures or complex procedures without the need for frequent suture changes, saving time and improving efficiency.
- Cutting Needle (CT): The attached cutting needle, with its 1/2 circle curvature, is designed to easily penetrate tough tissue such as skin or fascia. The precision tip of the CT needle allows for effortless tissue penetration while maintaining the structural integrity of the surrounding tissue.
- Non-Absorbable and Reliable: ETHILON® sutures are non-absorbable, providing long-lasting support and reducing the risk of post-operative suture breakdown. They are suitable for use in both short-term wound support and long-term suture retention where prolonged healing is required.
- Black for Visibility: The black color of the suture material provides excellent contrast against tissue, improving visibility for the surgeon during wound closure. This is particularly useful in low-light environments or for fine suturing work.
