| Description |
: |
PROSTEEL sutures are non-absorbable, sterile, surgical steel sutures, most inert and provides maximum tensile strength.
Steel sutures are made from premium quality surgical grade steel which ensures that suture is inert and there is no tissue reactivity. Steel sutures are soft and specially annealed ductile steel reduces chances of breakage. Further these sutures are bright, drawn and annealed and has a strength of 700 to 800 Mpa. |
