The Ethicon Surgical Stainless Steel Suture M436G is a heavy-gauge, non-absorbable monofilament suture manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, designed for procedures requiring exceptional tensile strength and permanent wound support.

The USP 5 size provides substantial tensile performance suitable for high-tension closures, orthopaedic applications and surgical environments where rigid metallic support is essential. This configuration includes two individual 30-inch (76 cm) silver strands per pack, allowing extended working length and controlled handling during demanding procedures.

M436G is supplied single-armed with a CCS-1 conventional cutting needle measuring approximately 60 mm. The conventional cutting configuration enhances penetration through dense, fibrous or tough tissue while providing sharp cutting efficiency and secure wound edge alignment.

This stainless steel suture maintains tensile integrity indefinitely and is supplied sterile and single-use in a Box of 12, intended for professional surgical settings requiring dependable metallic wound closure.
