Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
125500.00 Ore Sizers 100

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Mount the ore sizer to a rigid skid and through-bolt the frame; cross-brace the crate and immobilize rotor assemblies to prevent internal shift.
  2. Mark center of gravity and all lift points; include a simple rigging plan so terminals can use forklifts or cranes safely during cross-dock transfers.
  3. List “Ore Sizers NMFC 125500, Class 100” on the BOL; density is not required. Add serial numbers, crate count, and any removable parts on a packing list.
  4. Seal gearboxes and oil ports, drain excess fluids to avoid drips, and wrap motors/control panels with VCI or shrink film plus desiccant for moisture control.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing with fixed Class 100 eliminates density disputes and speeds up quoting across lanes.
  • Correct NMFC use reduces reclass fees, rebills, and delays from inspections at LTL terminals.
  • Engineered skids and bracing lower damage risk, protecting high-value mining assets and reducing claims.
  • Properly skidded units qualify for standard LTL or volume LTL, often avoiding costly flatbed minimums.
