Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
118760.00 Lint Condenser Caps or Dust Flues, in boxes or crates 125

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List NMFC 118760 and Class 125 on the BOL; this is a fixed class for lint condenser caps and dust flues, so no density calculation is needed.
  2. Choose packaging by rigidity: use double-wall boxes for small caps and reinforced wood crates for long or thin-gauge flues that could bend.
  3. Pad and brace protruding flanges and seams with edge protectors and foam; immobilize parts inside the box/crate to prevent vibration and oil-canning.
  4. Bag fasteners, gaskets, or screens and secure them inside the container; add orientation labels and “Do Not Stack” if the flue or cap can deform under load.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing with fixed Class 125 reduces reclass disputes and speeds LTL quoting for dust collection components.
  • Non-hazardous status broadens carrier options and avoids hazmat fees, improving lane coverage for textile and industrial ventilation shipments.
  • Flexible packaging (boxes or crates) lets you balance protection and cost—lighter boxes for compact caps, rugged crates for oversized flues.
  • Clear NMFC mapping streamlines BOL prep and dock workflows for OEMs, installers, and maintenance teams handling lint and dust systems.
