This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code X1296H, is engineered for dependable soft tissue approximation in procedures requiring long-term tensile strength and minimal tissue reactivity. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, excellent knot security and permanent wound support.

The USP 2-0 diameter delivers substantial tensile performance suitable for fascia and general soft tissue closure requiring secure approximation. The extended 120 cm strand length supports continuous suturing techniques and controlled placement during cardiovascular and general surgical procedures.

This suture is supplied with an MH-1 PLUS VISIBLACK taperpoint needle (31 mm). The TAPERPOINT PLUS geometry enhances needle sharpness and penetration efficiency, while VISIBLACK technology improves intraoperative visibility for greater placement accuracy. Manufactured from high-strength 4310 alloy, the needle provides stability and resistance to bending.

Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring reliable non-absorbable wound closure with enhanced needle visibility.
