NMFC 88420 - TV Face or Implosion Plates | Class 60

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List the item on your BOL as “NMFC 88420, Class 60 – TV face/implosion plates” to prevent reclass disputes and speed up carrier acceptance.
2. Use sturdy boxes or wood crates only, as recognized by this item. Cushion edges with foam end-caps, add corner protection, and keep plates vertical to reduce flexing.
3. Palletize boxed or crated units with edge boards and stretch wrap; avoid banding directly over glass. Mark Fragile and This Side Up and add shock/tilt indicators for high-value loads.
4. For repair/refurb shops, separate each plate with non-abrasive interleaves and identify lot numbers on the inner wrap so items remain traceable if a crate is opened in transit.

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

• Fixed Class 60 rating simplifies quoting and contracts, minimizing density questions and unexpected reclassification fees.
• Non-hazardous glass status streamlines paperwork and avoids hazmat surcharges while still enabling careful handling instructions.
• Crate-or-box flexibility lets you tailor protection to risk and value, helping balance packaging cost against potential damage claims.
• Clear NMFC alignment for glassware improves carrier confidence, often yielding steadier LTL rates and faster tender-to-pickup cycles.
