Contrary to charmm27, charmm36 rtf have no element

charmm27
MASS 1 H 1.00800 H ! polar H
MASS 2 HC 1.00800 H ! N-ter H
MASS 3 HA 1.00800 H ! nonpolar H
MASS 4 HT 1.00800 H ! TIPS3P WATER HYDROGEN
MASS 5 HP 1.00800 H ! aromatic H
MASS 6 HB 1.00800 H ! backbone H

charmm36
MASS 31 H 1.00800 ! polar H
MASS 32 HC 1.00800 ! N-ter H
MASS 33 HA 1.00800 ! nonpolar H
MASS 34 HP 1.00800 ! aromatic H
MASS 35 HB1 1.00800 ! backbone H
MASS 36 HB2 1.00800 ! aliphatic backbone H, to CT2

if this is what you want
