This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code 8636G, is engineered for dependable dermal and soft tissue approximation in procedures requiring refined handling and permanent tensile support. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® ensures smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and long-term wound stability.

The USP 6-0 diameter provides delicate tensile performance suitable for precise skin and soft tissue closure where controlled approximation is essential. The 18 inch (45 cm) strand length supports accurate placement and meticulous knot tying in fine surgical fields.

This suture is supplied with a PC-3 PRIME™ conventional cutting needle (16 mm). The conventional cutting configuration enables sharp penetration of dermal tissue, while PRIME™ geometry enhances needle sharpness and strength. Featuring MULTIPASS® technology, the needle is designed to maintain performance through repeated tissue passes with reduced deformation.

Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring reliable non-absorbable wound closure.
