NMFC 122750 - Hydraulic Cylinder Heads, Steel | Class 70

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Select packaging: sealed boxes for smaller heads, or open-top wire-bound wooden crates on skids for heavy or oversized units to maintain Class 70 and streamline handling.
2. Protect machined faces and ports—cap all hydraulic ports, apply VCI or rust inhibitor, and brace with hardwood blocking or foam to stop in-transit movement.
3. Band to skids with steel or heavy poly strapping, add edge protectors, then mark weight, center of gravity, and orientation; use “Do Not Stack” where needed.
4. Book LTL under NMFC 122750, note non-hazardous status, and request liftgate or forklift-compatible skids if the pickup or delivery lacks a dock.

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

• Predictable costs with a fixed Class 70—no density math, fewer reclass fees, and cleaner quotes.
• Damage reduction through approved crating or boxed-on-skid methods tailored for heavy steel components.
• Simplified compliance and faster tendering since the freight is non-hazardous and widely recognized by carriers.
• Quicker routing across LTL networks familiar with NMFC 122750, improving transit reliability for machinery spares.
