Ethicon PROLENE with HEMOSEAL Technology Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture USP 4-0 75 cm CC-4 TAPERCUT Micro-Point Needle W8665 (Box of 12)
This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture with HEMOSEAL™ Technology, product code W8665, is engineered for reliable soft tissue approximation where enhanced sealing capability and permanent tensile strength are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and durable wound stability.
The USP 4-0 (Metric 1.5) diameter offers balanced tensile performance suitable for dermal and general soft tissue closure. The 75 cm strand length supports accurate placement and secure knot tying across a wide range of surgical procedures.
This suture is fitted with a CC-4 TAPERCUT® micro-point needle. The TAPERCUT® micro-point configuration combines a tapered body with a finely engineered cutting tip, enabling controlled penetration of slightly resistant tissue while minimising trauma. HEMOSEAL™ Technology is designed to enhance sealing at the needle-to-suture interface, supporting improved haemostatic performance. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
