NMFC 24760 - Davits, Iron | Class N/A

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List NMFC 24760 on the BOL and describe precisely: iron davits, pair count, longest length, and whether winch bases or mounts are attached.
2. Secure packaging: bolt each arm to a pallet or inside a wood crate, block/brace pivots and yokes, cap threaded ends, and use VCI wrap plus edge guards.
3. For long pieces, bundle with padded contact points, apply two or more bands, mount on a 4‑way pallet, and mark center of gravity and any overlength warnings.
4. Bag small hardware (sheaves, pins, bolts) and fasten it to the main skid; include a packing list and photos to streamline receiving and claims.

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

• Correct Boat Group identification reduces reclass risk for a class‑not‑listed item and helps carriers rate consistently.
• Palletized or crated davits minimize handling and damage, lowering claim exposure and avoiding many long or non‑stackable accessorials.
• Corrosion and surface protection preserve finish on arrival, cutting rework costs for marinas, yards, and OEMs.
• Accurate dimensions and stackable packaging improve trailer utilization, often securing better LTL rates and fewer overlength fees.
