Product description

This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code W8731G, is engineered for reliable dermal and soft tissue approximation in animal health procedures where precision 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 3-0 diameter delivers enhanced tensile performance suitable for veterinary skin and moderate-tension soft tissue closure. The 45 cm strand length supports accurate placement and secure knot tying during a wide range of animal surgical procedures.

This suture is supplied with an X-1 conventional cutting needle (22 mm). The conventional cutting configuration enables sharp penetration of tougher dermal tissue, supporting controlled and secure closure in animal patients. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
