How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Pack hand stamps and small parts in sturdy double‑wall boxes with foam or cell dividers; cap sharp dies, polybag loose pieces, and add desiccant to prevent rust.
  2. Label cartons with part numbers and “Hand Stamps/Parts”; list NMFC 116210, Class 100 on the BOL. Example: “12 boxed steel hand stamps, 24 lb.”
  3. If sending multiple cartons, palletize with edge protectors and tight stretch wrap; distribute weight evenly and avoid overhang to prevent puncture claims.
  4. When shipping sets (handles and perforation heads), bundle each set and include a kit-by-kit packing list to speed receiving and quality checks.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 100 rating—no density calculations—cuts reclass fees and simplifies LTL quoting.
  • Boxed packaging standardizes handling, reducing OS&D risk for small, metal tooling and lowering claim costs.
  • Non-hazardous status shortens booking time and avoids hazmat surcharges and documentation hassles.
  • Clear identification within the Machinery Group supports accurate routing and eligibility for contract or tariff-based machinery rates.
