Ethicon PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture USP 1 100 cm V-39 TAPERCUT Needle (45 mm) W8450G (Box of 12)
excl. VAT
This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code W8450G, 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 offers enhanced reach and flexibility during deeper or more complex veterinary surgical interventions.
This suture is supplied with a V-39 TAPERCUT® needle (45 mm). The TAPERCUT® configuration combines a tapered body with a cutting tip, enabling controlled penetration of dense or fibrous tissue while maintaining needle stability and strength. 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.
