SUPRAMID

At sizes of 4/0 and larger, SUPRAMID has a multifilament character. It consists of twisted polyamide fibres that are coated. SUPRAMID has high tensile strength, good tying properties and the advantages of a monofilament suture. In smaller diameters, 7/0, 6/0, and 5/0, SUPRAMID is a monofilament.

SPECIAL FEATURES

  • exceptionally good knot-holding security
  • extremely smooth passage through tissues
  • high linear and knot tensile strengths

AREAS OF USE

  • Ligatures
  • General surgery
  • Oral and maxillofacial surgery
