Product description

This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture, product code W8704, is engineered for fine soft tissue and vascular approximation where precision handling 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 7-0 (Metric 0.5) diameter offers refined handling characteristics suitable for delicate tissue layers requiring controlled tension. The 60 cm strand length provides balanced reach and flexibility during intricate surgical procedures.

This suture is fitted with a CC TAPERCUT micro-point needle. The TAPERCUT micro-point configuration combines a tapered body with a finely engineered cutting tip, enabling controlled penetration of slightly resistant tissue while minimising trauma to surrounding structures. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional microsurgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
