NMFC 112760 - Wooden Lath in Bundles | Class 50

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Use the fixed Class 50 rating—no density math. Enter “wooden lath in bundles” on the BOL to prevent reclass delays.
2. Reinforce each bundle with banding and corner protectors so thin slats stay aligned; two straps each direction plus stretch wrap works well.
3. Load on sturdy 4-way pallets with zero overhang and block/brace to stop spear-like shifting. Keep bundle lengths flush and uniform.
4. Shield from moisture if kiln-dried is specified by adding a top sheet or bag. Mark piece count, length, and bundle ID for quick receiving.

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

• Predictable Class 50 pricing helps secure competitive LTL rates versus mixed wood items that rate higher.
• Straightforward classification cuts inspection time and reduces costly reclass fees or documentation disputes.
• Tight, banded bundles stack cleanly, improving trailer cube and lowering cost per delivered slat.
• Clear commodity labeling speeds claims handling and reduces loss from broken or missing slats.
