excl. VAT
This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code MPP8880H, is engineered for reliable skin and soft tissue approximation where controlled penetration and permanent tensile support are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® ensures smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and long-term wound stability.
The USP 3-0 diameter delivers enhanced tensile strength suitable for dermal and moderate-tension soft tissue closure. The 45 cm strand length supports precise placement and secure knot tying across a wide range of surgical applications.
This suture is supplied with a PC-25 PRIME MULTIPASS® conventional cutting needle (26 mm). The conventional cutting configuration provides sharp penetration of skin and tougher tissue layers, while PRIME geometry enhances needle strength. MULTIPASS® technology is designed to maintain sharpness through repeated passes, supporting consistent penetration performance. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
