Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
108020.00 Kits, belting repair, consisting of primer solution, self-vulcanizing rubber compounds, cleaner or solvent, patches or patch stock and necessary hand tools other than power tools, in boxes 85

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Confirm contents match the entry: primer, self‑vulcanizing rubber, cleaner/solvent, patches, and hand tools only—no power tools to avoid reclassification.
  2. Seal liquids tightly and bag each bottle; add absorbent liner and dividers inside the box to prevent leaks and abrasion during LTL handling.
  3. Keep boxes upright on a pallet, band and wrap; mark This Side Up and avoid top-stacking heavy freight due to liquid components.
  4. List “NMFC 108020, Class 85, Boxes” on the BOL with accurate piece count and weight to enable quick rating across non-hazmat carriers.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 85 simplifies pricing—no density calculation or dimensional tiering required.
  • Non-hazardous status widens carrier options and eliminates hazmat surcharges.
  • Standard boxed packaging speeds cross-dock flow and lowers claim risk for kits with liquids and rubber compounds.
  • Clear content limits (no power tools) reduce reclass fees and unexpected delays.
