This PERMA-HAND™ Silk Black Braided Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, model 1676G, is designed for fine soft tissue approximation and skin closure where precision, smooth passage and excellent knot security are essential. The suture is composed of black braided natural silk fibres with a specialised coating to enhance handling while maintaining secure knot performance.
The USP 5-0 size offers a fine diameter suitable for delicate tissue work and cosmetic-level skin closure. The 45 cm (18 inch) length provides controlled handling and efficient placement in minor surgical and outpatient procedures.
This product features a single PS-2 PRIME Micro-Point reverse cutting needle. The micro-point geometry enhances sharpness and penetration precision while the reverse cutting design improves needle strength and reduces tissue cut-through risk in dermal tissue.
