This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code W8721, is engineered for reliable soft tissue approximation where precision handling and permanent tensile strength are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® ensures smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and long-term wound stability.

The USP 5-0 diameter offers refined tensile performance suitable for delicate soft tissue and layered closure procedures. The 75 cm strand length provides balanced reach and flexibility during precise surgical applications.

This suture is bi-directional and supplied double-armed with two CC-1 TAPERCUT CC needles (13 mm). The TAPERCUT CC configuration combines a tapered body with a cutting tip, enabling controlled penetration of slightly resistant or fibrous tissue while maintaining stability and accuracy. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
