Nylon
Nylon Surgical Sutures are non-absorbable monofilament threads identified by their characteristic blue or black color, offering excellent tensile strength, minimal tissue reactivity, and smooth passage through tissue. Nylon monofilament sutures are widely used for skin closure, microsurgery, and ophthalmic procedures where precise, low-profile suturing is required. The elastic properties of nylon allow slight tissue accommodation while maintaining secure approximation. Available in fine USP sizes including 6-0 and 7-0 for delicate work, nylon remains a versatile and economical choice for permanent or removable wound closure across surgical specialties.
