FiberStick suture is #2 FiberWire suture&nbsp;with the first 12 inches stiffened to allow convenient and easy advancement through most cannulated instruments, eliminating the need for a monofilament suture or wire suture shuttle. FiberStick sutures come with a thin plastic tube that protects the stiffened suture until use. TigerStick sutures are similar to FiberStick sutures, but they are white with a black stripe to make suture identification easier.
