Product Overview
The Surgical Specialties Quill Barbed Suture (Ya-2031Q) is a knotless tissue-closure device designed for secure wound approximation without traditional knot tying. This monoderm absorbable suture features bidirectional barbs that provide excellent tissue grip, distributing tension evenly along the wound line. Made from Polyglycolic Acid/PCL (polyglycolide-co-caprolactone), it offers predictable absorption and strength retention during the healing process.
The suture includes a 3/8 circle precision reverse cutting needle (size 3-0) for smooth tissue penetration, making it ideal for procedures requiring minimal trauma. Its monofilament construction reduces bacterial adhesion and improves handling.

- Bidirectional barbed design eliminates the need for knots
- Made from absorbable Polyglycolic Acid/PCL for gradual absorption
- Monoderm monofilament construction minimizes tissue drag
- 3/8 circle precision reverse cutting needle enhances accuracy
- Size 3-0 suture ensures strength and flexibility
