Pallet Packaging Rule

Safe stacking limit: 6 pieces per pallet to stay within the 2,500 lbs standard wood pallet rating.

NMFC Item Guidance

Reference code: 185300 (Titanium Billets & Plate). Rated under Class 50 based on 276 PCF density.

Shipment utilizes 4.1% of a standard 53ft trailer's 45,000 lbs legal cargo payload (43,160 lbs capacity remaining).
Standard GMA pallet recommendation: Maximum 6 units per pallet to remain within the 2,500 lbs safe working limit.

Shipping, Packaging & Stacking Specifications for Titanium Grade 5

Transport & Palletizing Rules

High-value aerospace alloy. Shipped in sealed plywood crates with moisture desiccant bags.

Typical Industrial Applications

Turbine engine discs
Airframe structural ribs
Medical implants
High-performance motorsport

Critical Handling Cautions:

Ensure secure manifest verification and tamper-evident packaging due to high cost per pound

Material density and metallurgical weight benchmarks correspond to standard test specifications from ASTM International and density rating tables from NMFTA.
