Product Description

Nylon Monofilament Ophthalmic Surgical Sutures USP 6/0 – 12 Pcs Non-Absorbable with Needle

The Stellmacher Nylon Monofilament Surgical Sutures USP 6/0 feature fine, non-absorbable blue nylon thread made from high-quality Polyamide 6/6.6 nylon. Paired with a precision 9mm, 3/8-circle reverse cutting needle, these sutures are designed for controlled needle handling, precise stitch placement, and delicate soft tissue approximation in suitable surgical procedures.

Each suture features 45cm (18 inches) of blue nylon monofilament thread attached to a stainless steel surgical needle. The fine USP 6/0 (0.7 Metric) configuration supports accurate tissue approximation and careful needle placement in appropriate fine skin closure, plastic, and reconstructive surgical procedures. Supplied in sterile, single-use packaging, with 12 sutures per box.
