Sutures. Plain Gut. 551B 4-0 27" C-6 3/8 Circle 19mm 12/Pk

These plain gut sutures are crafted from superior quality raw materials to deliver consistent absorption rates and exceptional tensile strength. Designed for reliable performance, each strand is precision polished to ensure a uniform diameter, which allows for smooth handling and secure knotting during surgical procedures.

• Suture size: 4-0 with a length of 27 inches
• Needle type: C-6, 3/8 circle, 19mm
• Pack quantity: 12 per pack
• Resorption time: approximately 5–7 days
• Material: Plain gut with extra sharp cutting edges

Compared to other sutures available on the market, these plain gut sutures stand out for their superior tensile strength and predictable absorption profile. The precision polishing process reduces tissue drag significantly, providing a smoother and less traumatic penetration than many standard sutures. Their extra sharp cutting edges extend from the point to the widest part of the needle, which enhances ease of passage through soft tissues and supports efficient wound closure.

Key Technical Advantages:

• Extra sharp cutting edges minimize tissue trauma and reduce drag for easier penetration
• Precision polished strands ensure consistent diameter for smooth handling and secure knotting
• Needle channel is specifically fitted to match the suture size, improving needle control and accuracy
• Reliable 5–7 day resorption aligns with typical soft tissue healing periods
• High tensile strength supports dependable wound approximation and ligation

Technology and Performance
The technology behind these plain gut sutures emphasizes a balance of strength and absorbability to match soft tissue healing requirements. The uniformity achieved through precision polishing ensures that the sutures perform predictably in surgical environments, reducing the risk of complications related to knot failure or uneven tension. Their design follows rigorous surgical standards, making them a trusted choice for general soft tissue approximation and ligation. This combination of performance and precision makes these sutures an ideal option for surgeons seeking dependable, efficient wound closure solutions.
