Main Benefits

Easy handling and knot tying thanks to its natural knotted silk composition.
Smooth passage through tissues with reduced damage due to the coated surface.
Its non-absorbable nature ensures continuous tensile strength for long-term support or planned removal.
The reverse cutting needle design allows precise tissue penetration and reduces the risk of tearing in delicate tissues.

Composition

Knotted silk thread derived from fibroin, a natural protein.
Sterilized and coated to enhance glide and reduce capillarity.
Stainless steel reverse cutting needle, 19 mm in length, half circle (3/8).

Instructions for Use

Used with the attached needle; the qualified veterinarian should determine the choice of suture and timing of use based on the animal type, weight, and clinical condition.

Package Size

Box containing 12 suture threads, each equipped with a needle.

Note

Non-absorbable silk may cause a mild inflammatory response and is suitable for applications requiring later suture removal or long-term support.
