Clinical questions

Answered.

Still unsure? A real specialist replies within one business day — ask us anything.

How does this 4-0 Nylon (polyamide) suture perform?
It is a non-absorbable monofilament that holds long term with minimal reactivity and smooth pass-through — a workhorse for skin closure and retention.
Is it comparable to what I use now?
Spec-for-spec it matches Ethilon and Dermalon on material, tensile retention and needle geometry — most clinicians switch without changing a thing about their technique. Want proof first? We’ll send a free sample to test against your current suture.
What needle does it come with?
It’s swaged — no threading — with a FS-2 needle, matched to this material and gauge. The monofilament construction keeps drag and memory low through the pass.
Is it sterile, and how long is the shelf life?
Yes — sealed sterile, single-use and lot-traceable, with a 4–5 year shelf life from purchase. We never ship short-dated stock.
How fast does it ship, and is there bulk pricing?
In-stock boxes ship the same business day from Vancouver, BC — most Canadian orders arrive in 2–4 business days, and orders over $1,250 ($850 USD) ship free. Mix sizes and needles across a case and volume tiers apply automatically.
