This PERMA-HAND™ Silk Black Braided Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, model 1677G, is designed for precise soft tissue approximation and skin closure where controlled handling and reliable knot security are essential. The suture is composed of black braided natural silk fibres with a coated finish to enhance smooth tissue passage while maintaining consistent tying performance.

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

This product features a single PS-2 PRIME Micro-Point reverse cutting needle, engineered for enhanced sharpness and precision penetration. The reverse cutting configuration strengthens needle integrity and reduces tissue cut-through risk when working in dermal tissue.

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