How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Book at Class 65 and list packaging as boxes; include NMFC 132120 on the BOL for clear routing and rating.
  2. Pack in heavy-duty corrugated boxes with inner polybags or small bins to contain loose pins; keep cartons near 40–50 lb to prevent burst failures.
  3. Palletize for even weight distribution; spread cartons across the deck, add a top cap, then stretch-wrap and band to resist point-load compression.
  4. Label each carton “Steel Tread Pins” with piece counts and carton sequence; avoid mixed SKUs to speed receiving and reduce OS&D issues.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 65 minimizes reclass exposure and stabilizes LTL rates.
  • Dense steel pins maximize cube efficiency, improving cost per pound on most lanes.
  • Non-hazardous status streamlines paperwork and lowers accessorial risk.
  • Durable boxing and secure pallet builds cut damage claims and protect OTIF and supplier scorecards.
