Safil Sutures are braided and coated, synthetic mid-term absorbable sutures made of polyglycolic acid.
- Braided and Coated – glyconate for best knot tying properties and suture run down – first throw holding capability – easy knot rundown and excellent knot security
- Smooth surface eases suturing and avoids sawing effect to the tissue
- Coated with 100% polyglycolic acid
- Synthetic for minimal tissue reaction
- Absorbable – 50% tensile strength on 18 days – 40% tensile strength on 21 days – 0% tensile strength on 28-35 days
- Mass absorption by Hydrolosis 60-90 days
- Special Steel alloy needles allows superior bending strength resistance
- Colour – Violet or Undyed
