The HS Split Stitch uses the HS Fiber (20 inches) with both ends returned to a ½ circle taper needle, forming a suture loop with needle attached. It is available in two different colors (white and blue/white). It is used for variety of surgical procedures, and is particularly useful in arthroscopic surgery for passing sutures through X-Repair and soft tissues. It is supplied with a ½ circle taper needle.

HS Fiber is a non-absorbable braided suture (36 inches) made from fibers of ultra high molecular weight, long-chain linear polyethylene that provide excellent straight pull strength and abrasion resistance, and the Core-locTM design results in high knot strength. The eBraidTM design provides superior handling characteristics. Four colors with a triaxial pattern design provide outstanding visibility and distinguishing features to enhance suture management, particularly important in arthroscopic orthopaedic surgery.
