lb/ft³

10.92lb/ft³

Indicative class

92.5

Your shipment density is undefined PCF, suggesting an indicative freight class of 92.5. Note: Official NMFC class also depends on handling, stowability, and liability.

Estimated

Estimated density-based class only. Official NMFC class also depends on handling, stowability, and liability. This is not an official classification.

Reference required — not determined from this data

Official NMFC classification cannot be determined from density alone.

Freight Density Calculator

kg/m³ and lb/ft³ with an indicative density class — not official NMFC.

Linear Feet Calculator

Estimate trailer linear feet from carton or pallet footprint.

How it works

Enter cartons. Density is exact math. Any freight class shown is indicative only.

Formula

Density = weight ÷ volume

Worked example

420 kg ÷ 2.4 m³ = 175 kg/m³ ≈ 10.9 lb/ft³.

Frequently asked questions

Is density the same as freight class?

No. Density is a measured number. NMFC class also depends on handling, stowability, and liability.
