Ethicon PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture W8976
£70.41
This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code W8976, is engineered for dependable soft tissue approximation in animal health procedures where long-term tensile strength and minimal tissue reaction are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE ensures smooth tissue passage, consistent handling and permanent wound support.
The USP 3-0 diameter provides balanced tensile performance suitable for veterinary dermal and soft tissue layers requiring reliable approximation and secure knot integrity. The 90 cm strand length supports controlled placement and continuous suturing techniques during general and advanced animal surgical procedures.
This suture is supplied with a V-7 tapercut needle (26 mm). The tapercut configuration combines a tapered body with a cutting tip, enabling precise penetration of fibrous or moderately dense animal tissue while reducing unnecessary trauma. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring reliable non-absorbable wound closure.
