How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Verify the item matches fabric-reinforced rubber parts covered here—stone/water deflectors, dust shields, pipe or spring insulators, and hanger straps—and review Note, item 192101 to confirm scope.
- Pack components in corrugated cartons with inner poly bags to prevent abrasion and rubber bloom transfer; add kraft interleaves and avoid compressing parts that could set or deform.
- Kitting helps: pair left/right deflectors or band hanger straps in set counts, then label cartons with NMFC 192100, Class 60, piece count, and PO or model references for receiving.
- Palletize cartons with column stacking and no overhang; use edge guards and stretch wrap, and keep loads away from heat, oils, or ozone sources that can degrade rubber.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Class 60 rating keeps LTL costs competitive for bulk cartons of reinforced rubber shields and insulators.
- Non-hazardous status streamlines paperwork and minimizes accessorials tied to special handling.
- Clear NMFC fit reduces reclass disputes and unexpected charges tied to misidentified vehicle parts.
- Flexible parts cube efficiently, improving trailer utilization and lowering cost per shipped unit.
