Product description

This PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EP8704SLH, is engineered for dependable permanent soft tissue approximation and wound closure. The suture is composed of dyed blue polypropylene monofilament, providing long-term tensile strength retention, minimal tissue drag, and low tissue reactivity suitable for a range of clinical and veterinary applications.

The suture is sized USP 7-0, making it ideal for fine soft tissue procedures where precise handling and secure closure are essential. The 60 cm suture length offers flexibility and control during placement and tying.

EP8704SLH is equipped with two CC175-8 tapercut micro point needles, each measuring 9.3 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The tapercut micro point design enables smooth and controlled penetration with reduced trauma, while EVERPOINT technology ensures consistent needle sharpness for reliable performance throughout use.

Supplied sterile and single-use, this product is packaged in a box of 36, suitable for clinical, hospital, and veterinary environments requiring high-precision, durable wound closure.
