NMFC 126305 - Pulp Grinder Bars/Knives | Class 65-100

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Verify the parts are bars or knives for beater rolls, pulp grinders, or refiner plugs/shells—not full assemblies—so they fit NMFC 126305.
2. Pack in heavy-duty boxes or band secure bundles; each box or bundle should weigh at least 50 lb to qualify for this item.
3. Guard sharp edges with rigid caps or blade sleeves and add rust-inhibitor wrap for steel; mark packages “Sharp Edges” for safe handling.
4. On the BOL, list NMFC 126305 and packaging (boxes or bundles) and select the correct weight-based class—65 or 100 per NMFC breakpoints.

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

• Lower costs via weight-based rating: heavier qualifying pieces can price at class 65 versus class 100 for lighter breaks.
• No density curve to calculate, speeding quotes and reducing reclass risk for mill parts and MRO replenishment.
• Using sturdy boxes or compliant bundles minimizes damage and exception fees on sharp, high-hardness components.
• Clear NMFC labeling and 50 lb+ packaging improve carrier acceptance, cutting delays for paper mills and refiner service shops.
