This ETHILON™ Black Monofilament Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code EW526BH, is designed for precise soft tissue approximation where fine tensile strength and extended strand length are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable nylon monofilament, ETHILON provides smooth tissue passage, minimal tissue reactivity and reliable long-term wound support.
The USP 5-0 size delivers refined tensile performance suitable for delicate skin closure and cosmetic procedures requiring accurate wound edge alignment. The extended 30 inch (75 cm) strand length offers increased working reach, making it particularly suitable for longer suture lines in aesthetic and general surgical applications.
EW526BH is supplied single-armed with one PC-3 Prime cutting needle measuring approximately 13 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The cutting needle configuration enables precise penetration through skin and firm tissue, while Prime needle technology supports sustained sharpness and consistent procedural performance.
