NMFC Description Class
127930.00 Brass or copper, in boxes, crates or drums 92.5

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. On the BOL, list “NMFC 127930, Class 92.5, Brass/Copper—Boxed or Crated” so carrier ratings and inspections align.
  2. Choose rigid wooden crates or double‑wall boxes; brace heavy fittings or bar stock with blocking and banding to prevent load shift.
  3. Distribute weight evenly on a pallet, keep the center of gravity low, and mark forklift entry points; avoid stacking unless packaging is rated.
  4. Wrap against moisture and abrasion; include piece count and metal type (e.g., brass valves, copper coils) to speed dock identification.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 92.5 reduces density disputes and reclass fees, improving quote accuracy.
  • Non‑hazardous metals clear safety checks faster, accelerating pickup and linehaul start.
  • Proper crating minimizes damage claims on high‑value alloys, protecting margins and SLAs.
  • Standardized box/crate on pallet increases carrier options and sharpens LTL rates.
