Sutures Non-Absorbable W4846 4 x 75cm ethibond excel non-absorbable coated braided green 5 55mm 1/2 circle taper cut heavy needle Ethibond Ethicon

Ethibond Excel is a braided, surgical suture composed of polyethylene terephthalate. It is prepared from fibers of high molecular weight, long-chain, linear polyesters.

The highly adherent coating is a relatively non-reactive non-absorbable compound that acts as a lubricant to mechanically improve the physical properties of the uncoated suture. 
This by improving handling qualities as contrasted to the braided, uncoated fiber. The suture is braided for optimal handling properties.
It is dyed green in most cases for enhanced visibility in the surgical field.
