Ethicon MERSILK® Silk Black Braided Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture – USP 0 – 100 cm (1 metre) – 90 mm Curved Cutting Needle – W792 (Box of 12)
This MERSILK® Silk Black Braided Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, model W792, is designed for dependable soft tissue approximation and ligation where controlled handling and strong knot security are essential. The suture is manufactured from black braided natural silk fibres with a coated finish to enhance smooth tissue passage while maintaining superior tying characteristics.
The USP 0 size offers strong tensile strength suitable for general surgical soft tissue closure and ligature applications. The extended 100 cm (1 metre) length provides increased working reach for deep operative fields and complex procedural requirements.
This product features a 90 mm curved cutting needle, engineered for precise penetration of tougher tissues. The curved cutting geometry supports controlled tissue entry and consistent wound closure performance in larger operative sites.
