What Is a Polyester Suture?
A polyester suture is effective in a variety of surgical applications. Strong yet flexible, these synthetic sutures come in an array of sizes and colors. Polyester sutures are non-absorbable, braided sutures made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET). These synthetic, long-chain linear fibers have a high molecular weight. The braiding of multiple strands makes a polyester suture more flexible for surgical use.

How Are Polyester Sutures Used?
Medical professionals use polyester sutures for soft tissue repair and ligation. Due to its flexibility and strength, the polyester suture is also appropriate for ophthalmic, cardiac and neurological applications. The tensile strength of polyester sutures does not degrade over time. They are nearly as strong as stainless-steel sutures, which have a high degree of tensile strength, but the polyester suture is more flexible and easier to work with.
Polyester Suture Types
Many types of polyester suture come in different colors, such as green, blue or violet, to make them more visible and easier to use. They are also available without dye in natural white.
Because they are made from braided fibers, polyester sutures typically have a silicone coating, which helps them glide more smoothly through the tissue. However, this type of suture is also available uncoated.
Polyester Suture Sizes
Polyester sutures are available in sizes ranging from #5-0 to #7. The smallest, 5-0, measures 0.1 millimeter in diameter while the largest is 0.9 mm in diameter.
