Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
17750.00 Atomizers; or Nebulizers, other than electric; in boxes 100

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Verify the units are non-electric and ship them dry; exclude medication cartridges or liquids to stay within this NMFC listing.
  2. Use sturdy corrugated boxes with foam, dividers, or molded trays to protect nozzles and valves; add orientation and fragile labels on each carton.
  3. On the BOL, write: “NMFC 17750 – Atomizers or Nebulizers, other than electric, boxed, Class 100,” and include piece count and total weight to prevent reclass.
  4. Provide box count, dimensions, and weight for carrier planning even though density isn’t required; e.g., 10 retail cartons nested in one master carton, taped seams, no poly mailers.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing: fixed Class 100 eliminates density disputes and reduces unexpected reclass fees.
  • Non-hazardous designation widens carrier options and avoids hazmat surcharges, streamlining tendering.
  • Boxed-package requirement supports palletization and stackability, cutting damage risk and claim costs for delicate spray mechanisms.
  • Single, specific NMFC listing speeds quoting and onboarding for clinics, distributors, and OEMs moving replacement units or demo kits.
