Description

Nurolon Suture, 8-18", Black, Rb-1 Needle, Size 4-0 is a synthetic nonabsorbable suture composed of tightly braided nylon filaments. The suture is coated to enhance its handling characteristics, providing smooth passage through tissues and improved knot security. The black coloration ensures excellent visibility during surgical procedures, facilitating precise placement.

The Rb-1 needle is a 1/2 circle taper point needle made of stainless steel, designed for effective penetration of delicate tissues with minimal trauma. Its curvature and sharp point allow for controlled passage through soft tissues, making it suitable for muscle, fascia, and subcutaneous closures.

Nurolon sutures exhibit physical and handling properties similar to those of silk sutures but surpass them in tensile strength and biocompatibility. The synthetic nylon composition minimizes tissue reactivity, reducing inflammatory response and promoting favorable wound healing. The braided construction contributes to flexibility and knot stability.
