Breg WrapOn Pads Compatibility Chart for Polar Care Glacier Systems – Guide to choosing the right WrapOn Pads for Knee, Shoulder, Ankle and other body parts for effective cold therapy.
Whether you require replacement pads, wraps, or essential accessories, using genuine Breg Polar Care Glacier parts guarantees compatibility and performance with both older and newer Glacier units. Please note that certain components like replacement pumps, lids, and cooler hose connectors are not sold separately due to their design and lifespan considerations.
WrapOn Polar Pads: Durable and Comfortable Cold Therapy
Breg WrapOn Polar Pads are engineered for durability and patient comfort. Constructed with ultrasonically welded polyether urethane sheets, these pads are robust and leak-resistant. The latex-free design is ideal for patients with sensitive skin, minimizing allergic reactions. Furthermore, the integrated ergonomic straps not only secure the pad in place but also provide therapeutic compression, enhancing the effectiveness of the cold therapy.
WrapOn Polar Pads are available in various sizes and configurations to target different body areas effectively:
- Knee (Regular, Large, XL): Contoured designs for comprehensive knee coverage.
- Shoulder (Universal, XL Universal): Specifically shaped for comfortable and effective shoulder treatment.
- Back with Long Straps: Designed for lower and mid-back applications, featuring extended straps for secure fastening.
- Ankle: Provides targeted relief and coverage for ankle injuries and post-operative recovery.
- Multi-Use (XL, XL Long Stem): Versatile pads suitable for larger areas or adaptable to various body parts, with the Long Stem option offering extended reach.
Polar Pads: Economical and Effective Cold Therapy
For a more economical option, Polar Pads offer similar cold therapy benefits to WrapOn pads. While they do not include integrated straps, Polar Pads are designed to be secured using Polar Wraps or elastic bandages. This allows for flexibility in application and cost-effectiveness.
Polar Pads are available in:
- Sterile Knee/Shoulder (02330): Ideal for post-surgical use where sterile conditions are required.
- Non-Sterile Knee/Shoulder (02320): Suitable for general cold therapy applications outside of sterile environments.
Polar Wraps: Securing Polar Pads for Targeted Treatment
Polar Wraps are specifically designed to work in conjunction with Polar Pads. These wraps ensure the Polar Pad stays securely in place against the treatment area, maximizing therapeutic contact and effectiveness.
Polar Wraps are available in shoulder sizes:
- Shoulder S/M (02653): Designed for small to medium shoulders.
- Shoulder L/XL (02655): Designed for large to extra-large shoulders, ensuring a snug and effective fit over a knee/shoulder Polar Pad.
Polar Dressings: Sterile Barrier for Skin Protection
Polar Dressings act as a crucial sterile moisture barrier between your skin and the cold therapy pad. Using Polar Dressings is recommended by the manufacturer to protect the skin from potential cryoburn, especially during extended cold therapy sessions. It’s important to note that Wrap-On Pads are not sterile and should not be used as a substitute for a sterile barrier when required.
Polar Dressings are available in sizes to match various pads:
- Ankle
- Back
- Knee/Shoulder
- Multi-Use
- Multi-Use XL

Beyond pads and wraps, several accessories and replacement parts are available to enhance the functionality and usability of your Breg Polar Care Glacier system:
- Y Adaptor (07640): This adaptor allows you to connect two pads to a single Glacier unit simultaneously. It’s particularly useful for bilateral applications, such as treating both knees after surgery.
- Three Prong Transformer (10698): The power transformer is essential for providing power to the Glacier unit’s pump. This replacement part ensures your system continues to operate efficiently.
