Ethicon 593H ETHILON 2-0 Black 1X18" PS-2 19mm BX/36

Ethicon 593H ETHILON 2-0 Black 1X18" PS-2 19mm BX/36

The Ethicon 593H represents the pinnacle of skin closure technology, combining the high-tensile strength of Size 2-0 Monofilament Nylon with the advanced engineering of the PS-2 (Precision Cosmetic) needle. As part of the premium ETHILON® line, this suture is designed for clinicians who require the mechanical strength of a 2-0 gauge without sacrificing the cosmetic delicacy of a plastic surgery-grade needle.

Additional product details

• The defining feature of the 593H is the MultiPass® needle, forged from proprietary ETHALLOY®.
• Manufacturer: Ethicon (Johnson & Johnson)
• Brand: ETHILON®
• Suture Size: 2-0 (3.0 metric) – High Strength
• Length: 18 Inches (45 cm)
• Color: Black (High-contrast for easy identification)
• Needle: 19mm, 3/8 Circle PS-2 (Precision Cosmetic)
• Needle Point: PRIME Reverse Cutting (Precision-honed edges)
• Needle Specialty: MultiPass® Technology / ETHALLOY® Construction
• Quantity: Full Box of 36 Sterile Units
• MultiPass® Performance: Standard needles can dull after 3–4 passes through the dermis. MultiPass® needles are specifically treated to retain sharpness and reduce "force-to-penetrate" throughout the entire closure, significantly reducing tissue trauma and postoperative scarring.
• ETHALLOY® Needle Alloy: Forged from a unique stainless steel alloy, the PS-2 needle provides 40% greater resistance to bending compared to standard surgical steel. This allows for thinner needle profiles that maintain extreme structural integrity in dense anatomical sites.
• PRIME Reverse Cutting Edge: The PRIME geometry features a more refined cutting edge on the outer curvature of the needle.
• Infection-Resistant Monofilament: The single-strand Nylon 6 construction lacks the interstices of braided materials, effectively eliminating "wicking" (capillarity).
• Status: New – Factory Sealed.
• Integrity:
