Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) monofilament

Synthetic suture material made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which is non-absorbable, exhibits significant porosity, flexibility, and high strength. The material possesses exceptional biological inertness and compatibility, and is also thrombo-resistant. It is primarily used in cardiovascular surgery for suturing vascular prostheses made of PTFE, as well as in dentistry and general surgery.

The strength of the needle attachment is guaranteed, stable, and reliable.

Upon request, needle attachment can be made with a thread of any diameter and length, tailored to the required USP size.

The best suture material for vascular surgery!

Due to the high porosity of PTFE, some positions have a unique needle-to-thread diameter ratio (approximately 1:1), which minimizes bleeding from the puncture site.

Advantages of using PTFE suture material with an optimal needle-to-thread diameter ratio: no blurring of contours, excellent vessel edge alignment, and a halving of operation time.
