Ethicon J281H Coated VICRYL 1 Undyed 1X27" CT 40mm BX/36

Ethicon J281H 1 Coated VICRYL Undyed Suture | CT 40mm Taper Point | Box of 36

The Ethicon J281H is a high-tensile Coated VICRYL® (Polyglactin 910) synthetic absorbable suture, specifically engineered for robust soft tissue approximation and ligation. This Size 1 undyed braided suture is a clinical staple for deep-tissue closures and fascia repair, offering an extended 27-inch (70 cm) length that provides ample material for continuous suture lines or multiple interrupted ties. Paired with the heavy-duty CT (Circle Taper) needle, the J281H is designed to penetrate dense tissue layers with minimal trauma and maximum control.

The CT needle is a large 40mm, 1/2 circle taper point needle. Its precision-engineered tip is designed to push tissue fibers aside rather than cutting them, making it the preferred choice for securing the peritoneum, abdominal fascia, and other vascular-rich internal soft tissues.

Technical & Professional Advantages

• Superior Tensile Strength: As a Size 1 suture, it provides the maximum mechanical support necessary for critical healing phases in high-tension areas, retaining approximately 75% of its strength at 14 days and 50% at 21 days.

• Taper Point Precision: The 40mm CT needle geometry is optimized for smooth penetration through thick soft tissue layers, reducing the risk of post-operative tissue tearing or unwanted bleeding.

• Extended 27" Length: The additional length compared to standard 18" sutures makes the J281H more efficient for longer incision closures, reducing the frequency of opening new packets mid-procedure.

• Exceptional Handling: The proprietary coating ensures a smooth "zip" through tissues with minimal drag, while the braided construction offers the exceptional knot security for which the VICRYL® brand is known.

• Predictable Absorption: Undergoes complete absorption via hydrolysis within 56 to 70 days, leaving no permanent foreign body once the tissue has regained its natural strength.
