This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, model EH7550H, is engineered for reliable skin and soft tissue approximation where strength and controlled penetration are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and reliable permanent wound support.

The USP 2-0 diameter delivers substantial tensile performance suitable for high-tension dermal and soft tissue closure. The 75 cm strand length enables improved operative reach and controlled placement during wound approximation.

This product features a PS-1 PRIME™ reverse cutting needle (24 mm) manufactured from ETHALLOY. The reverse cutting geometry enhances needle strength and reduces tissue cut-through risk while maintaining sharp, precise penetration. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this suture is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
