This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code W8430G, is engineered for dependable soft tissue and fascial approximation in animal health procedures where strength and extended reach are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® ensures smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound stability.

The USP 0 diameter delivers substantial tensile performance suitable for moderate to high-tension soft tissue closure in veterinary applications. The extended 100 cm strand length provides enhanced reach and flexibility during deeper or more complex animal surgical procedures.

This suture is supplied with an MO-5 taper point needle (31 mm). The taper point configuration enables atraumatic penetration by separating tissue fibres rather than cutting, helping to reduce tissue trauma while maintaining controlled placement. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
