Manufactured by the reputed Ethicon brand, this suture is designed with healthcare professionals in mind.

The non-absorbable nature of the suture ensures long-term wound support with indefinite breaking strength retention. Supplied with an FS-1 needle, the suture showcases a cutting edge reverse design, optimized to penetrate tissues with minimal resistance while maintaining the needle's sharpness and integrity.
