Gore Tex mechanical properties

Hi,

Have you an idea where I can find mechanical properties of GoreTex ? I'm conceiving a tool for an intracardiac operation and I need flexural and tensile modulus of GoreTex monofilament (used for suture) ? The other name is ePTFE.

Thank you and have a good day !
