This MERSILENE™ Polyester Fibre Surgical Suture, product code MF6175H, is designed for secure soft tissue approximation where permanent tensile strength and dependable knot security are required. Manufactured from braided non-absorbable polyester fibre, MERSILENE™ provides long-term wound support with minimal elongation and excellent handling characteristics.

The USP 1 diameter delivers substantial tensile performance suitable for moderate to high-tension soft tissue closure. The green braided construction enhances intraoperative visibility while maintaining flexibility and consistent knot tying performance.

Each suture features a 75 cm strand length, offering extended working reach within larger operative fields. Supplied with a reverse cutting needle, this configuration positions the cutting edge on the outer curvature to reduce tissue cut-through while improving control during dermal and tougher tissue closure.

Sterilised using cobalt irradiation and supplied sterile, this non-absorbable material retains tensile strength indefinitely and is intended for procedures requiring permanent or extended wound support. Supplied single-use in a box of 36, this product is suitable for professional surgical environments demanding durable non-absorbable closure performance.
