NMFC 71695 - Soldering Flux Salts, Dry | Class 70

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List on the BOL as “Flux, soldering (soldering salts), dry, boxed — NMFC 71695, Class 70” to avoid reclass and billing disputes.
2. Protect from humidity: seal salts in inner poly bags and place inside sturdy, double‑wall boxes; tape seams and add desiccant for hygroscopic mixes.
3. Palletize tightly with corner boards, straps, and 3+ wraps of film; cap the pallet and avoid top stacking heavy freight to prevent box compression.
4. Include an SDS and note “non-regulated, non-liquid” to speed carrier acceptance and simplify terminal handling.

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

• Fixed Class 70 means no density math, enabling faster, cleaner LTL quotes and fewer reweighs.
• Non-hazardous status cuts hazmat surcharges and documentation overhead, improving margins on repeat lanes.
• Boxed packaging aligns with the listing, reducing reclass fees, concealed damage, and claim exposure.
• Predictable mid-class rating supports FAK strategies and steadier freight budgets across chemical MRO shipments.
