Ethicon PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture USP 9-0 15 cm (6 in) Double-Armed TG140-8 Cutting Edge Spatula Reverse Needles 1754G (Box of 12)
This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture, model 1754G, is designed for highly delicate tissue approximation where precision control and minimal tissue trauma are critical. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides exceptionally smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and reliable long-term tensile strength.
The USP 9-0 diameter offers ultra-fine performance suitable for ophthalmic microsurgery and other delicate soft tissue procedures. The 15 cm (6 inch) strand length ensures optimal handling and control within confined surgical fields.
This product features double-armed TG140-8 cutting edge spatula reverse needles (6.5 mm). The spatulated reverse cutting design enhances controlled penetration in thin, delicate tissues while maintaining needle strength and directional stability. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this suture is intended for specialist surgical environments requiring microsurgical precision and consistent performance.
