This ETHILON™ Black Monofilament Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture, product code EH7998G, is engineered for ultra-fine tissue approximation in highly delicate ophthalmic and microvascular procedures where precision and minimal tissue trauma are essential.

Manufactured from non-absorbable nylon monofilament (Polyamide 6), ETHILON™ delivers exceptionally smooth tissue passage, minimal tissue reactivity and dependable long-term tensile strength retention. The monofilament construction reduces tissue drag while supporting refined handling and secure knot performance.

The USP 10-0 diameter is specifically indicated for extremely fine wound closure. The short 4 inch (10 cm) strand length allows superior control and reduced suture management in confined microsurgical fields.

EH7998G is supplied single-armed (S/A) with one CSA-48C microsurgical needle, facilitating controlled, atraumatic tissue penetration and precise wound edge alignment during intricate closure procedures.

Sterile and single-use, this product is supplied in a box of 12 sutures for specialist hospital and microsurgical settings requiring reliable non-absorbable micro-closure performance.
