Ti-Cron™ polyester sutures are nonabsorbable, sterile surgical sutures composed of polyethylene terephthalate. These braided sutures are available uncoated or coated uniformly with silicone to increase surface lubricity, enhancing handling characteristics, ease of passage through tissue, and knot run-down properties.
These sutures show high tensile strength, both linear and knotted, providing:
