This PROLENE® Polypropylene Undyed Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code F2859H, is engineered for reliable soft tissue and dermal approximation in animal health procedures where precision and long-term tensile strength are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE® provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound stability.

The USP 5-0 diameter offers refined handling characteristics suitable for delicate veterinary dermal and soft tissue layers requiring controlled tension. The 75 cm strand length supports accurate placement and secure knot tying during a wide range of animal surgical procedures.

This suture is supplied with a PS-3 PRIME™ reverse cutting needle (16 mm). The PRIME™ reverse cutting geometry enhances needle strength and reduces tissue cut-through risk, supporting sharp and controlled dermal penetration. The undyed configuration may be preferred where minimal suture visibility is desired in certain veterinary applications. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
