NMFC 184690 Grain Probes (Samplers) | Class 100

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Use rigid long boxes with foam or cardboard inserts, cap the probe tip, and tape sampling slots closed to prevent punctures during LTL handling.
2. When shipping multiples, separate each probe with dividers or sleeves to avoid metal-to-metal abrasion, then bundle inside the master box to control movement.
3. Keep lengths within carrier thresholds to avoid oversize fees (for example, under 96 inches when possible) and note dimensions after boxing for accurate quotes.
4. Label cartons “Grain Probes (Samplers) — Tools” and tender as NMFC 184690, Class 100; density entry isn’t required, but list carton count and size on the BOL.

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

• Fixed Class 100 provides predictable rating, reducing reclass risk and surprise charges.
• Non-hazardous designation speeds tendering and avoids hazmat surcharges or special paperwork.
• Boxed tooling can consolidate with other hardware on a pallet, lowering handling and minimum charges.
• Proper boxing and tip protection cut damage claims, preserving instrument accuracy and total landed cost.
