Ethicon PROLENE with HEMOSEAL Technology Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture USP 5-0 60 cm Double-Armed CC-4 MULTIPASS TAPERCUT CC Needles (13 mm) W8664 (Box of 12)
This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture with HEMOSEAL™ Technology, product code W8664, is engineered for reliable soft tissue approximation in animal health procedures where precision, sustained needle performance and enhanced sealing are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® ensures smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound stability.
The USP 5-0 diameter offers refined handling characteristics suitable for delicate veterinary soft tissue and dermal closure. The 60 cm strand length provides balanced reach and flexibility for accurate placement and secure knot tying.
This suture is supplied double-armed with two CC-4 MP TAPERCUT CC needles (13 mm). The TAPERCUT CC configuration combines a tapered body with a cutting tip, allowing controlled penetration of slightly resistant tissue. MULTIPASS® technology supports sustained needle sharpness through repeated passes, while HEMOSEAL™ Technology is designed to enhance sealing at the needle-to-suture interface. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
