Silk Black is a non-absorbable braided surgical suture with a reverse cutting needle, offering excellent handling, secure knot tying and reliable tissue approximation in 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 required. Silk sutures are widely used for their predictable performance and ease of use across a broad range of surgical applications.

This variant is supplied in USP 4/0 (EP 1.5) with a 45 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, helping to reduce tissue cut-through while providing precise penetration and controlled wound edge approximation, particularly in firmer soft tissues.

The black braided silk construction provides excellent pliability and handling control, enabling 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 where prolonged wound support is required or where planned suture removal is indicated. Its consistent handling characteristics support dependable outcomes in both routine and specialised 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.
