Ethicon PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture EP8812SLH

This PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EP8812SLH, is engineered for permanent soft tissue approximation where high tensile strength, precision handling, and predictable performance are required. Manufactured from blue dyed polypropylene monofilament, the suture provides outstanding long-term strength retention, minimal tissue reactivity, and low tissue drag.

The USP 24 diameter offers extremely high tensile strength for demanding soft tissue and fascia closure. The 60 cm suture length provides controlled handling in procedures where shorter working length is preferred.

EP8812SLH is supplied with two CC175-8 tapercut micro point needles, each measuring 9.3 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The tapercut micro point geometry enables precise tissue penetration with reduced trauma, while EVERPOINT technology ensures consistent needle sharpness and reliable penetration throughout use.

Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this suture is intended for professional clinical and hospital environments requiring strong, permanent wound closure with enhanced precision.
