NMFC 105340 - Steering Wheel Frames or Forms | Class 70

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List on the BOL as “NMFC 105340, Class 70, steering wheel frames/forms” and select packaging as packages to align with the item’s rule.
2. Protect shape integrity: nest rings with corrugated dividers, add VCI wrap for bare steel, and band cartons to pallets to prevent bending of spokes and rims.
3. Right-size cartons to keep dimensions compact and avoid overhang; use foam or honeycomb void fill so hubs don’t crush when stacked in LTL.
4. Label each carton with part numbers and orientation arrows; add a photo of packed contents for quality control and claim support.

Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.

• Predictable spend: fixed Class 70 removes density reclass risk, making LTL quotes stable and easier to contract.
• Lower damage costs: reinforced packaging and palletization protect thin steel rings, cutting returns and preventing assembly-line delays.
• Faster turnaround: non-hazardous designation and simple classification speed up dock routing and reduce inspection hold-ups.
• Clear compliance: precise NMFC mapping streamlines 3PL audits, improves vendor scorecards, and avoids re-bills for misclassification.
