Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
119110.00 Curtains, blast carving machine, rubber and steel combined, with or without inspection door or lighting fixtures, with counter weights, in crates 85

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Weigh the crated curtains as shipped and list the gross weight; Class 85 here is weight-based, so accuracy prevents carrier adjustments.
  2. Secure counterweights and any lighting fixtures inside the crate; block and brace to stop lateral shift during forklift handling.
  3. Note special features on the BOL—inspection door, lighting, or steel/rubber combo—so terminals plan proper lifting and avoid door damage.
  4. Confirm forklift entry and center-of-gravity marks on the crate; if tall or top-heavy, request extended forks or a liftgate as needed.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing with a fixed Class 85 eliminates density math and cuts reclass risk on LTL moves.
  • Crated packaging and rugged materials reduce damage claims, protecting uptime for blasting rooms and stone/metal shops.
  • Clear NMFC mapping speeds quotes and routing, helping planners consolidate machinery accessories on the same PRO.
  • Accurate, weight-based rating minimizes carrier reweigh fees and avoids invoice disputes, improving landed cost control.
