NMFC Description Class
135335.00 Anodes, cadmium, cast, in packages 65

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Quote as NMFC 135335 at Class 65. No density needed—enter accurate piece count and total weight for packaged cadmium anodes.
  2. Use lined cartons or sturdy wood crates to contain any surface dust. Example: poly bag each anode, then double‑wall box with foam or corrugated pads.
  3. Palletize heavy loads on 4‑way hardwood pallets; add top caps, corner boards, and steel strapping. Keep stacks under ~40 in to prevent tipping.
  4. Separate from food items and moisture sources. Ideal for plating shops: label as “Cadmium Anodes, Cast, Packaged” for quick receiving and audit trails.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing with a fixed Class 65—simplifies LTL rate shopping and budget planning for metal finishing supply chains.
  • Reduced reclass risk since the item is not density‑based; clean paperwork avoids correction fees and delays.
  • Dense, durable cargo means lower cost per pound compared to lighter classes, improving landed cost on bulk replenishments.
  • Streamlined operations for electroplating vendors: faster tendering, fewer disputes, and easier consolidation with other metal inputs.
