NMFC 111210 - Pneumatic Life Vests in Boxes | Class 100

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List NMFC 111210 and Class 100 on the BOL, noting “boxed, fully deflated pneumatic life vests” for clean rating and faster processing.
2. Choose sturdy cartons with inner poly bags; cushion inflators, buckles, and oral tubes so they don’t abrade the rubberized cloth during transit.
3. Palletize tightly with corner protection; keep cartons dry and away from heat to preserve the rubber coating and prevent deformation.
4. If inflation or repair equipment is included, secure it in an inner carton and ensure items are non‑pressurized and compliant with carrier rules.

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

• Fixed Class 100 eliminates density checks, reducing reclass disputes and surprise billing.

• Deflated and boxed packaging cubes efficiently, lowering handling time and damage risk for marine suppliers and service centers.
