NMFC 124940 - Cane or Parts, Iron/Steel, NOI | Class 77.5

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Reference NMFC 124940 on the BOL and describe contents as “iron/steel cane or parts, NOI” to prevent reclass fees.
2. Bundle long cane shafts or rails with steel or poly strapping, add corner protectors, and cap sharp ends to avoid punctures in transit.
3. Pack small fittings—ferrules, collars, brackets—in a wood crate or heavy box with dividers; line with VCI wrap to reduce surface rust.
4. Even with fixed Class 77.5, include accurate weight and pallet dimensions for LTL quotes and to ensure proper cubic capacity planning.

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

• Predictable costs thanks to a fixed Class 77.5—no density calculation needed.
• Non-hazardous designation streamlines carrier selection and speeds cross-dock handling.
• Metal-focused packaging guidance reduces damage claims on machined edges and coated finishes.
• Clear NOI wording and item number minimize inspections, reclassifications, and unexpected rebills.
