This MERSILK® Silk Black Braided Non-Absorbable Surgical Ligature, model W192, is designed for dependable vessel ligation and tying applications where extended strand length and strong knot security are essential. The ligature is manufactured from black braided natural silk fibres with a coated finish to enhance smooth handling while maintaining superior tying characteristics.
