This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, model ED12, is engineered for secure tissue approximation in animal health procedures where strength, controlled penetration and extended reach are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® delivers smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and reliable permanent wound support.

The USP 2-0 diameter provides high tensile strength suitable for endoscopic and minimally invasive veterinary procedures. The extended 110 cm strand length enables improved manoeuvrability and instrument handling during laparoscopic or deep surgical access.

This product features an EN-3 tapercut needle (24 mm) configured for endoscopic use. The tapercut design combines a tapered body with a cutting tip to facilitate controlled penetration of tissue in confined operative fields. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this suture is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
