This MERSILENE® Polyester Fibre Microsurgical Suture, product code R750G, is engineered for highly precise tissue approximation where permanent tensile strength and exceptional handling are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable braided polyester fibre, MERSILENE® delivers long-term wound support with minimal elongation and reliable knot security.

The ultra-fine USP 11-0 diameter provides extremely delicate tensile control, making it suitable for microsurgical and ophthalmic procedures. The green braided construction enhances visual contrast under magnification while maintaining flexibility and smooth tissue passage.

Each suture features a 12 inch (30 cm) strand and is supplied double-armed with two 5.3 mm TG160-4 reverse spatula needles. The reverse cutting spatula design enables flat, controlled penetration through layered tissue planes, supporting high precision and reduced tissue trauma in delicate anatomical structures.

As a non-absorbable material, MERSILENE® retains tensile strength indefinitely and is intended for procedures requiring permanent or extended wound support. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this configuration is suitable for specialist microsurgical environments demanding consistent and dependable non-absorbable closure performance.
