SMI Daclon Nahtmaterial

The non-absorbable Daclon suture material from SMI is a monofilament made of nylon. Permanent tissue retention with minimal tissue reaction facilitates durable wound closure in many surgical disciplines. The suture is encased in connective tissue and degrades at a rate of approximately 10% per year. The flexible suture material has a pliable tissue pull-through as well as very good handling and knot-slip properties. Ready-to-use needle-thread combinations are available in a variety of needle and thread strengths.
