NMFC 122670 - Die Set Guide Pins, Steel | Class 70

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Pre-wrap pins with VCI paper or light oil and place each piece in dividers or tubes inside the box to prevent tip-to-tip contact and maintain concentricity.
2. Choose double-wall cartons with end protection or foam blocks; cap pin ends to avoid punctures. Example: limit to 40–50 lb per box for safer LTL handling.
3. Print the BOL as: “NMFC 122670 – Guide Pins, Steel, Finished/Unfinished, Class 70, Not Hazardous,” and include piece count and carton weights.
4. When shipping multiple small boxes to a toolroom or press shop, band cartons to a mini-pallet or place boxed sets in a durable outer tote to reduce loss at cross-docks.

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

• Fixed Class 70 removes density calculations and reclass risk, producing reliable quotes and fewer invoice surprises.
• Non-hazardous steel components avoid hazmat fees and extra paperwork, streamlining LTL scheduling and pickup.
• Clear placement in the Machinery Group keeps tooling pins under favorable tariffs versus generic metal bar stock.
• Damage control through dividers and end caps cuts OS&D claims and costly regrinds, protecting tooling timelines and budgets.
