How to Use This Classification

  • Confirm composition first: pure nickel falls here, while nickel–copper shift to NMFC 139742 and nickel–iron–chromium alloys shift to NMFC 139744.
  • Specify the form and pack method (ingots, cathodes, sheet, bar) and note whether items are palletized, crated, or banded to skids to prevent edge damage.
  • Provide clear line-item details on each package: piece count, dimensions, and actual weight per unit to help carriers plan handling for dense, heavy metal freight.
  • Use tight banding and corner protectors; block-and-brace heavy stacks on pallets so forks can engage cleanly and the load stays stable during LTL transfers.

Business Value

  • Correctly routing alloys to the right NMFC item avoids reclass fees and invoice disputes.
  • Non-hazardous status reduces surcharge exposure and simplifies carrier selection.
  • Accurate form-and-packaging detail improves quote accuracy and can lower LTL rates on dense metal freight.
  • Sturdy packaging and documentation cut claim risk and keep high-value nickel shipments moving on schedule.
