Sutures. Plain Gut. 596B 5-0 18" C-3 3/8 Circle 13mm 12/Pk

The Plain Gut Sutures 596B 5-0 18" C-3 3/8 Circle 13mm offer a reliable solution for general soft tissue approximation and ligation with superior absorption and tensile strength. These sutures are crafted from first-quality raw materials to ensure dependable, predictable absorption.

• Suture size: 5-0 with an 18-inch length
• Needle type: C-3 3/8 circle measuring 13mm
• Pack count: 12 sutures per pack
• Resorption time: 5 to 7 days
• High tensile strength with extra sharp cutting edges

Compared to standard surgical sutures, these Plain Gut sutures provide enhanced precision due to their uniformly polished strands, which allow for smooth and secure knotting. Their extra sharp needle edge design extends from the point to its widest part, reducing tissue drag and minimizing trauma during penetration, outperforming many previous models that may cause more tissue resistance or inconsistent absorption rates.

Key Technical Advantages:

• Uniform diameter precision polishing for consistent knot security
• Needle channel perfectly matched to suture size for optimal passage through tissue
• Short resorption period of 5–7 days, ideal for rapidly healing tissues
• Extra sharp cutting edges deliver smoother penetration and reduced tissue trauma

Technology and Performance
Designed for surgical excellence, these sutures combine high tensile strength with efficient absorption to support healing in soft tissue procedures. The 3/8 circle needle facilitates easy maneuvering in confined spaces, making suturing faster and less traumatic. With a predictable absorption profile, they reduce the risk of prolonged foreign body reaction, promoting quicker patient recovery. Overall, the Plain Gut 596B sutures represent a dependable choice for surgeons requiring a high-performance, resorbable suture option.
