This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code W8522, is engineered for reliable soft tissue and dermal approximation in animal health procedures where precision and long-term tensile stability are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound support.

The USP 3-0 diameter delivers enhanced tensile performance suitable for veterinary skin and moderate-tension soft tissue closure. The extended 90 cm strand length offers increased reach and flexibility during layered or continuous suturing techniques in animal surgical procedures.

This suture is supplied double-armed with two SH taper point needles (26 mm). The taper point configuration enables atraumatic penetration by separating tissue fibres rather than cutting, helping to reduce tissue trauma while maintaining controlled placement. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
