NMFC 182490 — Abrasive Tile/Molding | Class 70

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List NMFC 182490 and the packaging type (boxes or crates) on the BOL to lock in Class 70 and avoid reclass charges.
2. For boxes: use inner liners to capture loose grit, interleave sheets between tiles/moldings, and add edge/corner protectors to prevent chipping during LTL handling.
3. For crates: block and brace contents, band the crate to a pallet with 4‑way entry, and keep the center of gravity low to minimize tip‑over risk on forklifts.
4. Palletize uniform cartons and fully shrink‑wrap; cap and bundle molding lengths so abrasive edges don’t scuff adjacent freight.

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

• Fixed Class 70 means no density math—faster quoting and fewer invoice disputes for abrasive composition tile or molding.
• Defined packaging (boxes or crates) reduces damage claims and reclassification fees, protecting margins on construction supply shipments.
• Non‑hazmat status avoids hazmat surcharges and keeps lanes open across standard LTL networks for reliable transit.
• Predictable rating helps contractors and distributors budget freight on multi‑pallet tile runs and staged project deliveries.
