Collection details
SutureVet stocks a comprehensive range of bovine sutures engineered for the demands of cattle surgery and large animal veterinary practice. From caesarean sections and rumenotomies to teat repairs and orthopaedic closures, our suture materials are selected for strength, knot security, and reliable tissue handling in bovine patients.
Cattle surgery often requires heavy-gauge materials capable of holding tension across thick tissue layers. Our bovine suture range includes absorbable polyglycolic acid and polyglactin sutures for internal closures, as well as robust non-absorbable nylon and polypropylene options for skin and external applications. Taper point and reverse cutting needle configurations are available to suit both visceral and cutaneous procedures.
All products meet ISO manufacturing standards and are trusted by farm vets, large animal practices, and agricultural veterinary surgeons across the UK. Bulk and trade pricing is available, making SutureVet the practical choice for high-volume bovine caseloads.

Ethicon VICRYL RAPIDE is a sterile synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture manufactured from polyglactin 910 and engineered for rapid absorption and short-term tensile strength retention.
The braided construction provides excellent handling characteristics and reliable knot security, making it suitable for superficial soft tissue approximation where extended wound support is not required.
This USP 4-0 undyed variant measures 75 cm in length and is supplied with a 19 mm 3/8 circle reverse cutting prime needle, designed for precise penetration through skin and delicate tissue while minimising trauma.
VICRYL RAPIDE is formulated to lose tensile strength more rapidly than standard VICRYL sutures, making it ideal for skin closure and minor surgical procedures.
Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 36 for professional surgical environments.
