Mufflers
Mufflers Freight
About this Product
Mufflers must be shipped in a dry, well-ventilated environment to prevent rust and corrosion. Each unit should be protected with adequate padding—bubble wrap, cardboard, or foam—and stacked no more than two pallets high on standard 48” pallets to ensure stability during transit. Proper labeling and secure fastening are essential to comply with NMFC 125850 and to facilitate efficient handling by forklifts and loading docks.
