This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture, product code W8707, is engineered for fine soft tissue and vascular approximation where precision handling and long-term tensile stability are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® ensures smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound support.

The USP 6-0 diameter offers refined tensile performance suitable for delicate tissue layers requiring controlled tension. The 60 cm strand length provides balanced reach and flexibility during intricate surgical procedures.

This suture is bi-directional and supplied double-armed with two CC-1 MP TAPERCUT CC needles (13 mm). The TAPERCUT CC configuration combines a tapered body with a cutting tip, enabling controlled penetration of slightly resistant tissue. MULTIPASS® technology is designed to maintain needle sharpness through repeated passes, ensuring consistent performance. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
