This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code W8843, is engineered for dependable soft tissue and dermal approximation in animal health procedures where enhanced tensile strength and extended reach are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound stability.
The USP 2-0 diameter delivers substantial tensile performance suitable for moderate to high-tension soft tissue closure in veterinary applications. The extended 90 cm strand length supports efficient layered or continuous suturing techniques during animal surgical procedures.
This suture is supplied double-armed with two V-7 TAPERCUT® needles (26 mm). The TAPERCUT® configuration combines a tapered body with a cutting tip, enabling controlled penetration of dense or fibrous tissue while maintaining stability and accuracy.
