This PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EPM8812SL, is engineered for permanent soft tissue approximation where high tensile strength, precision handling, and minimal tissue response are required. Manufactured from blue dyed polypropylene monofilament, the suture provides excellent long-term tensile strength retention, low tissue drag, and resistance to bacterial adherence.
The USP 24 diameter delivers very high tensile strength for demanding soft tissue and fascia closure. The 60 cm suture length offers controlled handling in procedures where a shorter working length improves precision.
EPM8812SL is supplied with two CC175-8 tapercut micro point needles, each measuring 9.3 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The tapercut micro point geometry enables clean, controlled penetration with reduced trauma, while EVERPOINT technology ensures consistent needle sharpness and predictable penetration performance.
Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this suture is intended for professional clinical and hospital environments requiring strong, permanent wound closure with enhanced precision.
