B. Braun Surgical, S.A. has a wide sutures portfolio with different types of needles coming in varying lengths, shapes and wire sizes.
Some of our needles are clearly differenciated by an "s" or "ss" at the end if they have different wire size compared to the standard one.

Proposed translations
średnica igły
Diameter - The gauge or thickness of the needle wire
Igły okrągłe dostępne są w pełnym zakresie rozmiarów: igły o mniejszej średnicy preferowane są do szycia tkanek bardziej miękkich, np. w zabiegach naczyniowych lub przewodu pokarmowego, natomiast igły o większej średnicy znajdują zastosowan

French Catheter Scale also known as French Gauge was designed by a Parisian producer of surgical instruments Joseph-Frédéric-Benoît Charrière in 19th century. In Charrière's scale the gauge number divided by 3 gives the needle diameter in mm. That means, the bigger is the gauge number, the thicker is the needle.

Washburn & Moen Steel Wire Gauge is used in the United States for steel. It is also known as US Steel Wire or Roebling Gauge.
British Standard Wire Gauge is no longer popular, but is still used for measuring guitar strings. It is also known as Imperial Wire Gauge or British Standard Gauge. SVG only defines gauges from 7/0 to 50.
Birmingham Wire Gauge is now obsolete. Its sizes are not geometrically or arithmetically progressive, and, consequently, bear no definite relation to each other. B.W.G defines gauges from 5/0 to 36.
IEC 60228 is an international standard that among other things defines a set of standard wires. Wire sizes in this standard are denoted by their cross-section area expressed in mm².
