NMFC 200880 - Perforated Zinc Plate/Sheet | Class 77.5

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List NMFC 200880, Class 77.5 on the BOL and note the packaging type (box or crate) to prevent reclass or inspection delays.
2. Shield punched edges and burrs with edge guards; interleave sheets and use VCI paper to minimize abrasion and white rust on zinc.
3. Bundle and band stacks flat with even dunnage spacing; avoid overhang to prevent bending or distortion of perforated panels.
4. For narrow strips or mixed sizes, crate with cleats and blocking to stop shifting; mark center of gravity and “Do Not Tip” for safe handling.

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

• Predictable mid-range Class 77.5 pricing helps lock in accurate LTL quotes and reduces costly reclass charges.
• Non-hazardous status streamlines tendering—no hazmat paperwork, surcharges, or special routing required.
• Defined packaging (boxes or crates) improves carrier acceptance and lowers OS&D risk, cutting claim exposure.
• Simple, density-neutral classification speeds rate shopping and dispatch, reducing admin time and quote cycle length.
