Ethicon J570G Coated VICRYL 6-0 Violet 1X18" S-14 8mm ETHALLOY Needle Alloy SABRELOC Spatula Needle BX/12

Ethicon J570G 6-0 Coated VICRYL Violet Suture | S-14 SABRELOC Spatula Needle | Box of 12

The Ethicon J570G is a high-performance Coated VICRYL® (Polyglactin 910) synthetic absorbable suture, specifically engineered for the exacting demands of ophthalmic and microvascular surgery. This Size 6-0 violet braided suture is paired with double-armed S-14 SABRELOC™ Spatula needles, providing the ultimate in lamellar dissection and side-cutting precision. The unique "spatulated" geometry of the S-14 needle is designed to travel within thin tissue layers (such as the sclera or cornea) without inadvertent perforation, ensuring superior control in delicate ocular reconstructions.

The S-14 needle utilizes Ethicon’s proprietary ETHALLOY® needle alloy, which offers significantly higher strength and ductility compared to standard surgical steel. This ensures that the 8mm needles maintain their micro-sharpness and resist "bending" during high-resistance tissue passes.

Technical & Professional Advantages

• SABRELOC™ Spatula Design: The flat, thin-profile "spatula" needle provides lateral cutting edges that allow the needle to glide through lamellar tissue planes with unmatched stability and depth control.

• ETHALLOY® Precision: Constructed from a patented surgical alloy that is 40% stronger than standard stainless steel, providing the rigidity needed for precise microsurgical maneuvering.

• Optimized for Ophthalmology: Ideally suited for scleral fixation, trabeculectomy, and corneal transplants where minimal tissue displacement and high knot security are required.

• Predictable Tensile Strength: Maintains approximately 75% of its original strength at 14 days and 50% at 21 days, supporting the wound through the critical early healing window.

• Braided Handling: The braided structure offers the superior "tie-down" feel and knot security essential for securing ocular implants or closing microscopic incisions.
