Ethicon PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture W8803
£140.42
This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code W8803, is engineered for reliable soft tissue and dermal 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 5-0 diameter offers refined handling characteristics suitable for delicate veterinary soft tissue layers requiring controlled tension. The 60 cm strand length provides balanced reach and flexibility during intricate animal surgical procedures.
This suture is supplied double-armed with two CC-5 TAPERCUT CC needles (11 mm). The TAPERCUT CC configuration combines a tapered body with a cutting tip, enabling controlled penetration of slightly resistant tissue while maintaining stability and accuracy. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
