This PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EP8709H, is designed for permanent soft tissue approximation where strength, durability, and controlled handling are required. Manufactured from blue dyed polypropylene monofilament, the suture provides excellent tensile strength retention, minimal tissue reactivity, and low tissue drag.

The USP 0 diameter offers increased strength suitable for closure of fascia, muscle, and other soft tissues requiring secure long-term support. The 75 cm suture length provides extended reach and flexibility during surgical procedures.

EP8709H is supplied with two BV-1 taperpoint needles, each measuring 9.3 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The taperpoint needle geometry allows smooth tissue penetration with reduced trauma, while EVERPOINT technology ensures consistent needle sharpness and predictable penetration performance.

Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this suture is intended for professional clinical and hospital environments requiring reliable, permanent wound closure.
