NMFC Description Class
76300.00 Nowel Pins, in boxes 70

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List NMFC 76300 on the BOL and describe contents as “Nowel pins, boxed – foundry flask parts” to match the tariff language and avoid reclassification.
  2. Use double‑wall corrugated boxes with dividers or sleeves; wrap pins in VCI paper or poly to prevent rust and keep machined surfaces from rubbing.
  3. Fill voids with dense kraft or foam, cap the pin ends, and tape all seams so heavy metal parts can’t breach the carton during LTL handling.
  4. When sending multiple boxes, keep each box to a safe lift weight, mark box count and part numbers clearly, and keep boxed packaging intact even if you palletize for handling.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 70 simplifies quoting and removes density calculations, cutting reclass risk and unexpected carrier adjustments.
  • Non‑hazardous designation streamlines paperwork and reduces accessorial hurdles for industrial supply lanes.
  • Boxed packaging aligns with the NMFC description, lowering inspection delays and damage claims on precision alignment surfaces.
  • Predictable costs support foundries, pattern shops, and maintenance teams planning repeat replenishment of flask pins.
