NMFC Description Class
123470.00 Headers, gas or liquid 92.5

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Quote and book using NMFC 123470, Class 92.5—no density calculation needed; list this NMFC on the BOL to avoid reclass charges.
  2. Protect process ports and branches: cap or plug every opening, brace long nozzles, and wrap flanges; use skids with saddles or V-blocks to stabilize round headers.
  3. Create forklift access and mark center of gravity; band the header to the skid with steel or heavy poly strap and block against rolling during transit.
  4. If previously in service, drain and purge, label 'clean and dry,' and include drawings or port maps so carriers handle lift points correctly.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing from fixed Class 92.5 reduces reclass disputes and surprise invoices.
  • Damage prevention through proper capping and bracing lowers replacement costs and project delays.
  • Faster quoting and scheduling—no density proofs or complex reweigh audits required.
  • Machinery Group familiarity among carriers can improve handling and transit reliability for manifolds.
