66270.02 Cast iron 65

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Pack bowls or cups in cartons or tight bundles; nest same-size pieces with slip sheets to reduce cube and prevent metal-to-metal scuffing.
  2. Bag mounting hardware separately and pad sharp rims on steel or cast bowls to avoid carton rub-through and claimable abrasion.
  3. Palletize with no overhang; use a 40x48 pallet, corner boards, and a top sheet, then stretch wrap or hood to stop rattling in transit.
  4. Note the line on the BOL: NMFC 66270, Bowls/Cups NOI, Class 65–70, and request liftgate or farm delivery access if shipping direct to barns or ranches.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing from a fixed Class 65–70 removes density disputes and speeds quotes for farm supply orders.
  • Non-hazardous status avoids hazmat surcharges and carrier restrictions, improving service options to rural locations.
  • Efficient nesting and bundled packs cut cubic size, enabling tighter pallet counts and lower LTL spend for distributors.
  • Clear NOI alignment within the Farm Equipment Group helps carriers recognize the product and reduces reclass risk.
