Inert, smooth, and easy to handle, polypropylene is our most versatile monofilament suture. Its tensile strength is superior to other true monofilaments. In addition, a unique extruding technique ensures a uniformly round cross section and a strand that passes easily through tissue for better knot security with fewer throws.

All our suture is configured in racetrack packaging to minimize memory. We offer this suture in multiple sizes with a variety of needle types. We use only black needles for enhanced visibility and minimal glare.

Common uses for this type of suture include:

• General and skin closure
• Muscle retention for permanent fixation
• Plastic surgery
• Ophthalmology
• Microsurgery
• Cardiovascular surgery
• Neurosurgery
