Collection details
SutureVet provides a specialist range of equine sutures designed to meet the exacting standards of horse surgery and large animal veterinary practice. Whether you are performing colic surgery, wound closure, tendon repair, or reproductive procedures, our suture materials deliver the strength, flexibility, and tissue compatibility required in equine patients.
Horses present unique surgical challenges — large tissue volumes, high wound tension, and active post-operative movement all demand suture materials with superior knot security and tensile strength. Our equine range includes heavy-gauge absorbable sutures such as polyglactin and poliglecaprone for internal closures, alongside durable non-absorbable nylon and polypropylene sutures for skin and external applications.
Needle options include taper point for visceral and muscle layers, and reverse cutting for tough cutaneous tissue. All products are ISO-certified and trusted by equine vets, referral hospitals, and racing yards across the UK.
Benefit from competitive trade pricing, bulk purchasing options, and fast UK dispatch from SutureVet.

This PROLENE Polypropylene Undyed Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code W534G, is engineered for reliable dermal and soft tissue approximation in animal health procedures where precision and long-term tensile stability are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound support.
The USP 4-0 diameter delivers balanced tensile performance suitable for veterinary skin and moderate-tension soft tissue closure. The 45 cm strand length allows controlled placement and secure knot tying across a range of animal surgical procedures.
This suture is supplied with a PC-25 PRIME™ conventional cutting needle (26 mm). The conventional cutting configuration enables sharp penetration of tougher dermal tissue, while PRIME™ geometry enhances needle strength and stability during placement. The undyed configuration may be preferred where reduced suture visibility is desirable in veterinary applications. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
