This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code EP7402H, is engineered for precise soft tissue and vascular approximation in procedures where fine handling and dependable tensile performance are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE delivers smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound support.

The USP 7-0 (Metric 0.5) diameter is suitable for delicate tissue layers and vascular applications requiring controlled tension and refined placement. The 75 cm strand length provides enhanced reach and flexibility during intricate procedures.

This suture is fitted with a BV-1 taper point needle. The taper point configuration allows atraumatic penetration by separating tissue fibres rather than cutting, making it appropriate for vascular and other soft tissue closure where minimal trauma is critical. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring secure non-absorbable wound closure.
