NMFC 157180 - Magnetic Plastic/Rubber Sheeting | Class N/A

Note 157182: NOTE-Will not apply on tape recordings or tape recording blanks.

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Reference Note 157182 on the BOL and select the exact sub-item that fits your form factor (strips vs. sheets, rolled vs. flat) to avoid reclass.
2. For rolls, keep product wound on sturdy cores with edge guards, then wrap in poly and double-wall corrugate; block and brace to prevent telescoping in transit.
3. For flat sheets, interleave with chipboard to prevent scuffing, strap to a non-ferrous pallet, and add corner protectors to keep edges true for sign-making or gasket cutting.
4. Mark packages “Magnetic Material—Keep From Ferrous Surfaces” and record overall bundle dimensions and weight; orient sheets face-to-face to limit stray attraction.

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