There are none in arachnid2, there are some in karith. You can make it by making a brush using nodraw nonsolid shader, and then applying a cull none nonsolid shader to the face you want to be visible; or you can make it out of 2 patch meshes.

you can also use the "karith/e3grate_transt2" shader.

Or one patch mesh with a suitable double-sided shader.
