The 8635G Suture is a 5-0 Prolene (polypropylene) suture, featuring an 18-inch blue monofilament design with a PC-3 (precision cutting) needle. Prolene is a non-absorbable synthetic suture material known for its exceptional strength, smooth handling, and minimal tissue reactivity. Its monofilament structure resists bacterial adhesion, enhancing wound security while reducing the risk of infection. The PC-3 needle is small and designed for precise suturing in delicate tissues, ensuring controlled, accurate placement. Read more
