Product Description

The Half Curved Suture Needle No. 2 (NHCTC.02) is a precise instrument designed for suturing in post mortem applications. With a length of 73mm, this needle offers controlled curvature and size, making it ideal for detailed closure work, particularly on smaller or more specific incisions. The half-curved profile ensures that the needle can penetrate tissue accurately while still allowing for easy manipulation by hand, often preferred over full-curve designs for certain applications.

Key Design Features

  • Defined 73mm length provides optimal control for detailed and controlled suturing.
  • Half curved profile balances tissue penetration depth with ease of manual handling.
  • Robust stainless steel construction prevents distortion during penetration of dense material.
  • Designed with a wide eye for rapid and hassle-free loading of thick suture threads.
