Description
Arthrex TigerStick TigerWire UHMWPE
TigerStick is TigerWire® with the first 12 inches stiffened to allow convenient and easy advancement through most cannulated instruments, alleviating the need for a monofilament suture or wire suture shuttle. TigerSticks come with a thin plastic tube which protects the stiffened suture until use.
