Endure Industries EG36193U-75 3-0 WEGO-PGA Undyed 19mm Prime Reverse Cutting 75cm BX/12

Endure Industries WEGO-PGA | 3-0 Undyed | 19mm Prime Reverse Cutting | 75cm | BX/12

The Endure Industries EG36193U-75 (WEGO-PGA) is a high-tensile, absorbable braided suture composed of coated Polyglycolic Acid (PGA). In Size 3-0 (2.0 metric), this suture provides the ideal balance of strength and flexibility for intermediate-depth tissue approximation. Because it is Undyed (Natural), it is specifically indicated for use in superficial or aesthetic closures where the visibility of a dyed suture through thin skin would be undesirable.

Equipped with a 19mm Prime Reverse Cutting needle, this suture is designed to navigate dense or fibrous tissue with ease. The "Prime" designation indicates a high-precision finish and advanced sharpness, allowing the needle to maintain its cutting edge through multiple passes, reducing the force required for each stitch and minimizing patient tissue trauma.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Predictable Absorption Profile: WEGO-PGA offers exceptional strength during the critical early healing phase. It retains approximately 82% of its original tensile strength at 14 days and 56% at 21 days, with complete mass absorption occurring around 120 days.

• Prime Reverse Cutting Geometry: The cutting edge is located on the outer curvature of the needle. This design directs the cutting force away from the wound margin, significantly reducing the risk of the suture "sawing" through or tearing the tissue under tension.

• Superior Handling & Knot Security: The braided construction is treated with a specialized coating to ensure smooth passage through tissue without "chatter" or drag. This coating also enhances knot-tying characteristics, allowing for precise knot placement and excellent security.

• Atraumatic Undyed Material: The natural undyed fiber is highly biocompatible and minimizes the risk of "spitting" or inflammatory reactions. Its neutral color is ideal for sub-cuticular closures where long-term cosmetic results are the priority.

• Extended 75cm Length: The generous 75cm length provides ample material for continuous suturing techniques or multi-layer closures without the need for additional suture units.
