This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture, product code W2780, is engineered for highly delicate surgical procedures requiring meticulous handling and long-term tensile stability. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound support.

The USP 9-0 diameter is suitable for ultra-fine microsurgical and vascular applications where controlled tension and minimal tissue trauma are essential. The short 13 cm strand length allows enhanced precision within confined operative fields.

This suture is supplied with a BV130-4 taper point needle (5 mm). The taper point configuration enables atraumatic penetration by separating tissue fibres rather than cutting, helping to minimise trauma during delicate tissue approximation. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional microsurgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
