This PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EPM8745, is engineered for reliable, permanent soft tissue approximation where strength, predictable handling, and minimal tissue response are required. Manufactured from blue dyed polypropylene monofilament, the suture provides excellent long-term tensile strength retention, low tissue drag, and resistance to bacterial adherence.

The USP 2 diameter offers substantial strength for fascia, muscle, and load-bearing soft tissue closure while maintaining good handling characteristics. The 75 cm suture length provides extended reach and flexibility during surgical procedures requiring secure wound support.

EPM8745 is supplied with two BV-1 taperpoint needles, each measuring 9.3 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The taperpoint geometry supports smooth tissue penetration with reduced trauma, while EVERPOINT technology ensures consistent needle sharpness and predictable penetration performance.

Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this suture is intended for professional clinical and hospital environments requiring dependable, permanent wound closure.
