This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, model 8735H, is engineered for fine vascular and microsurgical tissue approximation where precision handling and durability are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® delivers smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and reliable permanent wound support.

The USP 7-0 diameter provides ultra-fine tensile performance suitable for delicate vascular repair and micro-anastomosis procedures. The 60 cm (24 inch) strand length allows controlled placement and flexibility during vascular suturing.

This product features double-armed BV175-6 MULTIPASS® taper point needles (8 mm). The taper point geometry ensures atraumatic vessel penetration, while MULTIPASS® technology maintains needle sharpness through repeated passes. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this suture is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
