Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
107600.00 Irons (Flatirons or Sadirons), with or without stands, self-heating, other than electric, in boxes 77.5

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Drain and air-out any self-heating reservoirs so no fuel or odor remains; leave caps open to dry 24 hours before boxing to avoid carrier refusals.
  2. Wrap each iron and any stand separately with dense cushioning or corrugated, then immobilize inside a double-wall box; add edge guards to resist compression.
  3. Distribute weight low in the carton and partition multiples with dividers; mark heavy box and place on a pallet if stacking is expected in LTL transit.
  4. List NMFC 107600 at class 77.5 on the BOL and select packaging as boxes; specify non-electric to prevent misrouted electric-appliance ratings.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed class 77.5 streamlines quoting and removes density calculations, cutting rating time and back-and-forth with carriers.
  • Non-hazardous status avoids hazmat surcharges and limited-access carriers, widening options and lowering total landed cost.
  • Proper boxing for dense cast-metal irons reduces repack fees and damage claims, protecting margin on antique or specialty shipments.
  • Using the correct NMFC (107600) minimizes reclass risk and inspections, supporting stable discounts and predictable freight rates.
