Braided silk is the suture surgeons reach for when handling and knot security matter more than absorption. It ties down flat, holds a knot, and doesn't spring back.
- Physical material: natural protein fibre of raw silk
- Construction: braided
- Absorbable / non-absorbable: non-absorbable
- Coating: beeswax
- Colours: black and white
- Available size range: 5 through 9/0
- Tensile strength (wound support): medium to long term
- Tensile strength retention in tissue: indefinite
- Frequent uses: most body tissues for ligating and suturing; general surgery; ophthalmology and plastic surgery
Why does anyone still use silk when synthetics exist? Because nothing handles like it. The catch is that a braided natural fibre wicks fluid and shouldn't sit in a contaminated site.
See the veterinary supplies buying guide for material selection, and surgery consumables for the rest of the range.
