This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code W742G, is engineered for high-strength soft tissue and fascial approximation in animal health procedures where durability and extended reach are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound stability.

The USP 1 diameter delivers substantial tensile performance suitable for larger animal procedures and high-tension soft tissue applications. The extended 100 cm strand length supports enhanced reach and flexibility during deeper or more complex veterinary surgical interventions.

This suture is supplied with a CT taper point needle (40 mm). The taper point configuration enables atraumatic penetration by separating tissue fibres rather than cutting, supporting controlled placement while reducing tissue trauma. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
