Description

ETHIBOND EXCEL™ Suture, Green, OS-6, Size 1/0, 30", is a nonabsorbable, braided surgical suture made from polyester fibers. It is coated with a polybutilate compound, a biologically inert material that functions as a lubricant, enhancing the physical properties of the suture. The green color provides improved visibility during surgical procedures, aiding in precise placement and tissue approximation.

The braided structure of the suture delivers superior handling characteristics, including excellent pliability and knot security. The coating reduces friction during tissue passage, minimizes tissue trauma, and prevents fraying of the suture strands. This results in consistent control during suturing and reliable knot strength, even in demanding surgical environments.

Equipped with an OS-6 needle, this suture features a reverse cutting edge ideal for penetrating dense or fibrous tissues. The 3/8 circle design allows for controlled, accurate suture placement, particularly in confined or delicate surgical fields such as plastic or ophthalmic procedures.
