NMFC 135340 - Antimony & White Metalware | Class 100

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List NMFC 135340 and Class 100 on your BOL for boxed antimony, Britannia metal, pewter, or white metalware items; no density entry is required.
2. Use sturdy double-wall cartons with dividers or foam cells to prevent scuffing and dents on soft alloys; add desiccants and low-acid tissue to limit tarnish on pewter.
3. Palletize cartons tight to the edges with corner boards and top sheets so loads are stackable; avoid overhang to protect softer castings and tableware.
4. Label cartons clearly (e.g., “White Metalware—Keep Dry”) and separate dissimilar metals to reduce staining in humid transit; example: boxed pewter mugs in 24-cell inserts.

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

• Fixed Class 100 delivers predictable LTL quotes and cleaner budgeting for giftware, castings, and metalware runs.
• Non-hazardous status streamlines compliance and reduces hazmat-related accessorials and paperwork time.
• Correct boxing minimizes abrasion on soft alloys, cutting claim rates and replacement costs.
• Accurate NMFC use prevents reclass fees and billing disputes, speeding invoice approval and cash flow.
