NMFC 57175 Acid Spill Control Device | Class 60–92.5

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List NMFC 57175 on the BOL with the full description (pressurized container, expellant cartridge, hose, nozzle), packaging type (box, crate, or palletized loose), piece count, and 24‑hour hazmat emergency contact.
2. Immobilize the system: cap outlets, engage any trigger lock or safety pin, coil and cable‑tie the hose to the frame, cushion the nozzle, and apply “Do Not Drop” and orientation arrows.
3. Choose packaging to fit handling: ship boxed or crated for mixed hubs; send loose only when units have guards and are banded to a pallet with edge protectors and blocking to prevent roll or tip.
4. Confirm hazmat details from the SDS for the expellant gas and any media; apply the correct UN ID and hazard label, add limited‑quantity marks if eligible, and include required shipping papers under 49 CFR.

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

• Eliminate reclass charges by selecting the right option among the two NMFC listings in the 60–92.5 range and clearly stating packaging on paperwork.
• Reduce damage and claims by securing hoses/nozzles and guarding valves, which protects your rate base and improves carrier acceptance for hazmat freight.
• Predictable pricing: accurate hazmat declaration and NMFC 57175 usage help carriers pre-load surcharges and transit rules, cutting quote variance.
• Faster dock turns and fewer exceptions when units arrive boxed or crated and pallet‑ready, shortening lead times and improving delivery performance.
