Covidien 88862408-73 Monofilament Stainless Steel Suture Size 1 Pre-Cut 6 x 18 Inch Non-Needled BX/12

Fabricated from 316L implant-grade stainless steel conforming to ASTM F138 standards, this monofilament wire exhibits maximum tensile strength with virtually zero elongation or fluid absorption under static and dynamic loading. Supplied as a pre-cut packet containing 6 individual 18-inch (45 cm) non-needled strands, this USP Size 1 (4 Metric) metallic filament delivers consistent axial stability and low surface friction during mechanical anchoring routines. It serves as an ideal component for mechanical tension testing, structural joint stabilization research, wire twisting shear evaluations, and technical laboratory demonstrations.
