NMFC 128270 - Oil Burner Parts, Iron/Steel | Class 85

Note 128272: NOTE-Applies on air registers or parts thereof for regulating air supply in oil burning furnaces.

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Verify the listing fits your parts by checking NMFC Note at item 128272, especially for air burner housings, heads, or air tubes made of iron or steel.
2. Choose crates for heavy castings or assemblies (e.g., burner housings, blower plates) and use boxes only for smaller, well-cushioned components.
3. Protect metal surfaces from corrosion with VCI wrap or oil, cap threaded ports and nozzles, and block/bracket parts inside the crate to prevent movement.
4. Provide accurate piece count and packaging type (box or crate) on the BOL; request liftgate or limited access services in advance for bulky crated units.

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

• Class 85 provides predictable LTL rating for iron/steel burner parts, reducing reclass disputes and unexpected charges.
• Non-hazardous status streamlines booking and avoids hazmat fees, accelerating dock-to-dock cycle time.
• Purpose-built crating minimizes damage on dense metal components, lowering claims risk and replacement costs.
• Simple, non-density classification cuts quoting time and helps standardize rate negotiations across suppliers.
