NMFC 106510 - Rivets, Coated, Boxed | Class 50

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List the commodity as “Rivets, coated, in boxes – NMFC 106510, Class 50” on the BOL to prevent reclass or inspection delays.
2. Palletize dense boxes tightly: brick-stack, add corner boards, then stretch-wrap and strap (steel or heavy-duty poly) to stop rivet shift and carton crush.
3. Protect finishes on painted or japanned rivets with interior padding and moisture barriers; keep galvanized/tinned rivets dry to avoid white rust.
4. Stick to boxed packaging for this item number; do not mix in drums or bags, as packaging outside boxes may fall under a different listing.

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

• Class 50 delivers low base rates for dense hardware, helping reduce LTL costs on bulk rivet shipments.
• Clear, non-density classification simplifies quoting and minimizes unexpected reclass fees or disputes.
• Non-hazardous status widens carrier options and streamlines pickup scheduling across lanes.
• Boxed packaging improves count accuracy and stackability, cutting OS&D claims and warehouse handling time.
