This PROLENE™ Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture, product code W1709, is engineered for highly delicate surgical procedures requiring refined control 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 (Metric 0.3) diameter is intended for microsurgical and ophthalmic-level applications where ultra-fine suture calibre and meticulous handling are essential. The 23 cm strand length supports precise placement within confined operative fields.

This suture is supplied with a TG-140-8 needle configuration to facilitate controlled penetration during fine 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.
