Ethicon PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture USP 2-0 90 cm MH-1 Taper Point Needle W8526 (Box of 12)
This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code W8526, is engineered for dependable soft tissue and fascial approximation where enhanced tensile 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 2-0 (Metric 3) diameter delivers substantial tensile performance suitable for moderate to high-tension soft tissue closure. The extended 90 cm strand length provides increased flexibility and reach during layered or continuous suturing techniques.
This suture is fitted with an MH-1 taper point needle. The taper point configuration enables atraumatic penetration by separating tissue fibres rather than cutting, helping to minimise tissue trauma while maintaining controlled placement. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
