Silk Black is a non-absorbable braided surgical suture with a reverse cutting needle, offering excellent handling, secure knot tying and reliable tissue approximation for soft tissue procedures.

Silk Black is a high-quality non-absorbable braided surgical suture designed for soft tissue approximation where superior handling, knot security and tactile feedback are essential. Silk sutures are widely used in clinical practice due to their predictable performance and ease of handling across a broad range of surgical applications.

This variant is supplied in USP 2/0 (EP 3) with a 75 cm suture length and a 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle measuring 19 mm. The reverse cutting needle places the cutting edge on the outer curvature of the needle, reducing the risk of tissue cut-through while providing precise penetration and controlled wound edge approximation, particularly in tougher or more fibrous tissues.

The black braided silk construction delivers excellent pliability and handling control, allowing smooth passage through tissue and secure, reliable knot tying. The braided structure enhances knot-holding performance, while the black colour improves visibility within the surgical field for accurate placement and control.

As a non-absorbable suture, Silk Black maintains tensile strength over time, making it suitable for procedures requiring prolonged wound support or where planned suture removal is necessary. Its consistent handling characteristics support reliable outcomes in both routine and more demanding soft tissue closures.

Individually sterile packed and clearly labelled, Silk Black sutures ensure traceability, regulatory compliance and safe use in hospitals, clinics and surgical centres. They are suitable for general surgery and soft tissue procedures where a black braided silk reverse cutting needle suture is clinically indicated.
