NMFC 62600 - Infrared Industrial Ovens | Class N/A

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Confirm non-food use and specify packaging as box or crate, with or without skids. Example: ovens used for curing coatings or drying electronics assemblies.
2. Immobilize emitters and racks, latch doors, and protect control panels. Use moisture barrier bags and antistatic wrap where sensitive electronics are present.
3. Block and brace the chassis inside the box/crate, provide 4-way forklift access, mark center of gravity, and apply Do Not Stack plus tip-and-tell/shock indicators.
4. At booking, disclose dimensions, weight, and photos. Request needed accessorials (liftgate, residential, inside delivery) and consider air-ride or blanket wrap for lab-grade units.

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

• Item-specific NMFC for boxed/crated ovens reduces density disputes, cutting reclass fees and preventing rating delays.
• Non-hazardous status streamlines paperwork and widens carrier options, often improving transit times and costs.
• Rigorous crating and labeling protect fragile IR emitters and controllers, lowering claims and production downtime.
• Clear packaging declaration (box vs crate, skid vs no skid) yields accurate quotes and predictable LTL freight rates.
