Hilon Non-Absorbable Sterlised Surgical Needle Sutures (HL-3318)

HILON is a non-absorbable, sterile surgical suture composed of the long chain aliphatic polymers Nylon 6 and Nylon 6.6. HILON Nylon sutures are available in either black or blue, dyed with FDA listed dye(s). While HILON is not absorbed, progressive hydrolysis may cause a gradual loss of up to 20% in its tensile strength each year.

DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS

Easy passage through tissues due to its low frictional coefficient.
Minimal tissue reactivity.
Excellent elasticity.
Exceptional for skin closures.
High tensile strength even in the case of fine sizes for micro surgery and ophthalmology
