Non-absorbable suture thread FUSION™

Look Closely! Force Fiber Fusion® Suture Has Both Round and Flat Structures. Our Proprietary, Continuous Braiding Process Creates a Construct with Seamless Transitions Between the Segments. Ingenious Suture with Outstanding Properties Fusion Suture combines the performance characteristics of Force Fiber® Suture and Force Fiber® OrthoTape® Braid into a single strand. Fusion Suture is braided using a proprietary, continuous process that creates seamless transitions from round suture to flat braid and back to round suture. Don’t confuse Force Fiber Fusion® Suture with look-alike products that are simply a flat segment “sewn” onto two round sutures. Force Fiber Fusion® Suture has a broader footprint and more uniform distribution of pressure compared to similar sutures*. This may reduce tissue strangulation and a “cutting effect” in applications where tissue pull-through may be concern. Lower knot profile than similar sized suture. Force Fiber Fusion® Suture’s average knot height is 1/4 the size of similar suture. The height of Fusion Suture’s flat section is 38% thinner than similar products.
