This PROLENE® Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code F2825, is engineered for dependable skin and soft tissue approximation in procedures where strength and controlled penetration are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound support.
The USP 0 (Metric 3.5) diameter delivers substantial tensile performance suitable for dermal closure and moderate to high-tension soft tissue applications. The 75 cm strand length offers controlled reach and flexibility, supporting accurate placement and secure knot formation.
This suture is fitted with a CP-1 reverse cutting needle. The reverse cutting configuration enhances needle strength and reduces the risk of tissue cut-through, making it particularly suitable for skin and tougher dermal layers. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring durable non-absorbable wound closure.
