Description

Suture 5/0 Poly Blue 18" 19 mm FS-2 is a nonabsorbable monofilament suture composed of polypropylene, designed for reliable soft tissue approximation and ligation. The material exhibits minimal tissue reactivity and prolonged tensile strength, making it suitable for both superficial and deep tissue closures, particularly in skin and plastic surgery applications.

The FS-2 needle attached to this suture is a 19 mm reverse cutting needle, configured in a 3/8 circle. This needle type is ideal for penetrating tough or fibrous tissues such as skin, due to its cutting edge geometry. The needle features a non-reflective finish, enhancing visibility under strong surgical lighting and aiding accurate placement during wound closure.

This 5/0 gauge, 18-inch suture offers balanced performance for procedures where precision, durability, and long-term tissue support are required. It is suitable for general surgery, dermatologic closures, ophthalmic procedures, and plastic or reconstructive surgeries involving fine tissue layers.
