This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code F1840H, is developed for dependable soft tissue approximation where consistent handling and permanent tensile strength are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and durable wound support.

The USP 4-0 diameter delivers balanced tensile performance suitable for general soft tissue and layered closure procedures. The 75 cm strand length offers flexibility and controlled reach, supporting accurate placement and secure knot formation.

This suture is bi-directional and fitted with a BB taper point needle (17 mm). The taper point configuration enables atraumatic penetration by separating tissue fibres rather than cutting, helping to reduce tissue trauma during approximation. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
