Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE Suture) is an ultra-high molecular weight non-absorbable braided sterile surgical suture prepared from the fibers of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. It is available in White and Blue, white and green, white and black combination and in white color. In house needle manufacturing provides better needles with optimum sharpness which finally delivers smooth riding on tissues during suturing.
Indication of Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene
Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Suture is used for permanent, removable fixtures, cardiovascular surgery and orthopedic procedures. Polyethylene sutures have no tissue reaction. Polyethylene Suture is neither absorbed nor subjected to weakening by tissue enzymes. It as low friction and chemical resistance.
- Properties: Good knot security, excellent tensile strength for reliability, excellent handling and long lasting, low friction.
