This PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EPM8706, is engineered for reliable, long-term soft tissue approximation where strength, predictable handling, and minimal tissue response are required. Manufactured from blue dyed polypropylene monofilament, the suture delivers excellent tensile strength retention, low tissue drag, and resistance to bacterial adherence.

The USP 4-0 diameter provides a balanced combination of strength and flexibility, making it suitable for general soft tissue, cardiovascular, and ophthalmic procedures. The 75 cm suture length offers extended working reach and versatility during surgical closure.

EPM8706 is supplied with two BV-1 taperpoint needles, each measuring 9.3 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The taperpoint geometry supports smooth tissue penetration with reduced trauma, while EVERPOINT technology ensures consistent needle sharpness and reliable penetration performance.

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