NMFC 62250 - Industrial Radiant Heaters | Class N/A

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Use rigid, double-wall cartons with foam or molded inserts to immobilize emitter panels and mounting brackets; cap and secure power cords inside the box.
2. For quartz or ceramic radiant faces, add a non-abrasive wrap and spacer layer so the element never contacts the carton; consider double-boxing for multi-stop LTL.
3. Mark cartons Upright and Do Not Stack; these heaters have fragile elements and brackets that can crack under top load or lateral impact.
4. List the item on the BOL as “Industrial Radiant Electric Heater, no blower, boxed” with model and serial details to match the correct NMFC item.

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

• Correct item naming under NMFC 62250 helps avoid reclass charges and surprise invoices.
• Non-hazardous status streamlines tendering and removes hazmat surcharges from the cost stack.
• Purpose-built boxing for fragile emitters reduces claims, replacements, and service downtime at the job site.
• Clear differentiation from fan-assisted heaters prevents misquotes and keeps rates aligned with the true freight category.
