This PERMA-HAND™ Silk Black Braided Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, model 1984G, is designed for controlled soft tissue approximation and skin closure where precision, smooth passage and strong knot performance are essential. The suture is manufactured from black braided natural silk fibres with a coated finish to enhance handling characteristics while maintaining reliable knot security.

The USP 4-0 size offers a fine yet versatile diameter suitable for dermatological and minor surgical procedures. The 45 cm (18 inch) length provides optimal handling control and efficient knot placement during wound closure.

This product features a single PC-5 PRIME Micro-Point reverse cutting needle. The micro-point geometry ensures enhanced sharpness and penetration accuracy, while the reverse cutting configuration improves needle strength and reduces tissue cut-through risk in dermal tissue.

Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this suture is suitable for clinical and hospital environments requiring consistent performance and precision.
