Product Description
The Ethicon 662G ETHILON™ Nylon Suture is a high-performance, non-absorbable monofilament nylon surgical suture designed for precise tissue approximation and secure wound closure. Manufactured by Ethicon, ETHILON sutures are known for their smooth passage through tissue, high tensile strength, and reliable knot security.
This configuration features a Precision Point Reverse Cutting FS-2 needle (19mm, 3/8 circle) paired with black monofilament nylon, allowing excellent visibility and controlled placement during delicate procedures. The monofilament construction helps minimize tissue drag and reduces the potential for bacterial harboring compared to braided sutures.
ETHILON sutures are commonly used in skin closure, plastic surgery, and general soft tissue approximation, particularly when long-term tensile strength is required.
