This PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EP8711H, is designed for permanent soft tissue approximation where high strength, predictable handling, and minimal tissue response are required. Manufactured from blue dyed polypropylene monofilament, the suture provides excellent long-term tensile strength retention, low tissue drag, and resistance to bacterial adherence.

The USP 2 diameter delivers substantial strength, making it suitable for closure of fascia, muscle, and other load-bearing soft tissues. The 75 cm suture length allows extended reach and flexibility during surgical procedures requiring secure wound support.

EP8711H is supplied with two BV-1 taperpoint needles, each measuring 9.3 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The taperpoint design enables smooth tissue penetration with reduced trauma, while EVERPOINT technology ensures consistent needle sharpness and reliable penetration performance throughout use.

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