This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Microsurgical Suture, product code F1890, is engineered for fine soft tissue and microvascular approximation in animal health procedures where precision and long-term tensile support are critical. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound stability.

The USP 8-0 diameter is suitable for ultra-fine veterinary tissue layers requiring delicate handling and controlled tension. The 60 cm strand length supports accurate placement and secure knot tying during intricate microsurgical animal procedures.

This suture is supplied double-armed with two BV130-5 MP taper point needles (6.5 mm). Featuring MULTIPASS® technology, the needles are designed to maintain sharpness through repeated passes, supporting consistent penetration performance. The taper point configuration allows atraumatic fibre separation rather than cutting, reducing tissue trauma during approximation. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
