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 5-0 undyed variant measures 75 cm in length and is supplied with a 16 mm 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle, designed for precise penetration through delicate skin and fine tissue while minimising trauma.
VICRYL RAPIDE is formulated to lose tensile strength more rapidly than standard VICRYL sutures, making it ideal for minor surgical procedures and fine skin closure.
Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 36 for professional surgical environments.

Ethicon VICRYL is a synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture manufactured from polyglactin 910, engineered to deliver dependable wound support with predictable absorption and minimal tissue reaction.
This USP 2-0 violet suture is supplied in an extended 250 cm length in an unarmed configuration, making it suitable for ligation, continuous suturing, and knot tying where a separate needle selection is preferred or required.
VICRYL sutures are absorbed by hydrolysis, resulting in gradual and predictable loss of tensile strength as healing progresses. The braided construction ensures excellent handling and secure knot performance. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 12 for professional hospital and clinical environments.
