Non-Absorbable Sutures

Polytetrafluoroethylene Suture (PTFE)

Monofilament synthetic surgical suture made from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) polymer

PTFE suture is a monofilament non-absorbable, extremely soft and smooth material composed of a strand of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). This material is a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene that is very strong, knots well and biologically inert.

Our PTFE suture is white in color and some are available with black needles for enhancing the visibility during the surgery. The material has a very low friction coefficient, meaning it slides easily through tissue compared to other materials, thereby limiting the possibility of tissue damage. This feature, along with the monofilament construction, prevents the possibility of bacterial wicking into the surgical site.

Properties

Suture size: USP 2/0 - 6/0
Colour: white
Chemical composition: polytetrafluoroethylene
Sterilization: ethylene oxide
Structure: monofilament

Advantages

Its high tensile strength maintains durability even when wet.
Polyester sutures help reduce inflammation, promoting quicker wound healing.
Soft and comfortable, these sutures are designed for patient comfort.
They provide excellent handling and secure knotting for reliable performance during surgeries.

Applications

PTFE sutures are indicated for use in all types of soft tissue approximation and/ or ligation, including dental and general surgeries. The device is not indicated for the use in ophthalmic surgery and peripheral neural tissue.

Features

100% Medical Grade PTFE which is biologically inert and highly bio-compatible.
Monofilament structure does not allow bacteria wicking into the surgical site.
PTFE sutures being non-absorbable keeps the surgical site reliably closed.
Soft and flexible for patients (not stiff like most monofilaments).
PTFE sutures are available from U.S.P. size 2-0 to size 6-0.
