This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, model 8666H, is engineered for secure closure of dense and high-tension tissues where durability and controlled penetration are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE delivers smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and reliable permanent wound support.

The USP 2-0 diameter provides substantial tensile performance suitable for major skin closure and tough soft tissue repair. The 75 cm strand length enables effective operative reach and controlled placement during wound approximation.

This product features an FS reverse cutting needle (26 mm). The reverse cutting geometry enhances needle strength and reduces tissue cut-through risk while enabling efficient penetration of dermal and tough tissues. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this suture is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
