This ETHILON™ Black Monofilament Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture, product code W2814, is designed for ultra-fine tissue approximation where maximum precision and minimal tissue trauma are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable nylon monofilament, ETHILON provides exceptionally smooth tissue passage, very low tissue reactivity and reliable long-term tensile strength.
The USP 10-0 size is intended for ophthalmic and microvascular procedures requiring extremely delicate wound closure. The short 5 inch (13 cm) strand length allows precise control within confined microsurgical fields.
W2814 is supplied single-armed (S/A) with one BV130-4 taper point needle measuring approximately 4 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The fine taper point configuration enables atraumatic penetration of delicate tissue and supports controlled microsurgical approximation.
Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12 sutures, this product is intended for specialist hospital and microsurgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable micro-closure performance.

This PROLENE Polypropylene Undyed Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code F2861, is engineered for reliable soft tissue and dermal approximation where precision handling and permanent wound support are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and sustained tensile strength.
The USP 4-0 diameter delivers balanced performance suitable for dermal and general soft tissue closure applications. The 75 cm strand length supports accurate placement and controlled knot tying across a wide range of surgical procedures.
This suture is unidirectional and fitted with a PS-2 PRIME™ reverse cutting needle (19 mm). The PRIME™ reverse cutting geometry enhances needle strength and reduces tissue cut-through risk, supporting sharp, controlled penetration of skin and tougher dermal layers. The undyed configuration may be preferred where reduced suture visibility is desirable. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
