Klarity Masks are a higher standard for thermoplastic masks.
Klarity offers four types of thermoplastic: Klarity Blue™, Klarity Green®, Klarity LiteGreen™, and Klarity White™. Each type of thermoplastic has been specifically designed for optimal fixation with each frame-type and are available in varying thicknesses, sizes, and perforation patterns. Our thermoplastic is stronger, less-sticky, and has less shrinkage than all other standard masks.
Klarity White™
Available for S-type, U-frame, P-type, and Stereotactic masks
Klarity White™ is our original thermoplastic and continues to be the standard for much of the world today. Klarity White™ has a fast set-up for a strong thermoplastic mask. Klarity White™ is less sticky than other standard thermoplastics.
Strength:Strong
Shrinkage:Standard Shrinkage
Molding Time:45-60 seconds
Cooling Time:8-10 minutes
Klarity LiteGreen™
Available for O-type and E-type masks
Klarity LiteGreen™ is our preferred thermoplastic for 3- and 5-point systems. It is non- stick, so the edges can be pulled apart if they touch, and it drapes nicely for an incredibly easy molding experience. Klarity LiteGreen™ is only available in 2.4mm with a microperforation pattern, which makes this mask stronger than other reinforced thermoplastic.
Strength: Stronger
Shrinkage: Less Shrinkage
Molding Time: 1-2 minutes
Cooling Time: 8-10 minutes
Klarity Green®
Available for S-type, U-frame, O-type, P-type, V-type, E-type, Proton Therapy, and Stereotactic masks
Klarity Green® is our best selling, signature thermoplastic and is our recommended thermoplastic for most applications. It has less shrinkage and is non-stick, so edges can be pulled apart if they connect. Klarity Green® features a slightly longer working-time (30 extra seconds). This means therapists don’t have to rush and can create a more carefully molded mask, which allows for a more comfortable patient experience.
Strength: Stronger
Shrinkage: Much Less Shrinkage
Molding Time: 2-3 minutes
Cooling Time: 10-12 minutes
Klarity Blue™
Available for SRS, S-type, U-frame, and Proton Therapy masks.
Klarity Blue™ is our strongest thermoplastic, and is our preferred material for therapists desiring an extremely rigid setup. It also has the least amount of shrinkage. Klarity Blue™ sets up quite fast, making this ideal for therapists looking for a speedy set-up, or for patients who need limited immobilization time. Klarity Blue™ drapes gently for smooth, straightforward mask making.
Strength: Strongest
Shrinkage: Least Shrinkage
Molding Time: 1-2 minutes
Cooling Time: 6-8 minutes
