The Montana Mask currently used by Billings Clinic, MT
Surgical masks are not to be mistaken for N95 masks and the Montana Mask is a surgical mask. However, these surgical masks can be printed on many 3D printers as they require PLA as print material. They are accepted and used at the Billings Clinic in Billings, Montana.
The reusable respirator has not been evaluated by the FDA, and Intermountain 3D makes no warranties as to its efficacy in any specific situation. It is being offered as a stopgap to healthcare providers in this time of shortage. However, great care has been taken to insure the safety of users of the mask.
