The hazard labels must be placed on the box in an upright position and must
not be covered by any other type of marking or label.
b) If a subsidiary risk exists for a material, the subsidiary risk label must be
placed near, but not on, the primary hazard label.
c) If the proper shipping name and UN number are not included on the label, this
information must be printed on the box near the label.
d) Also, before air-shipping, an orange-colored Cargo Aircraft Only label must
be applied to one side of the shipping container.
7. INTERNATIONALAND DOMESTIC CARGO SHIPPING
CARRIERS
Cargo carriers sometimes have special requirements pertaining to shipment of
hazardous materials. To assist customers, most of these carriers provide 24-hour
telephone support to help answer questions about cargo shipments.

Class 1 - Explosives
Shipment of explosives by air is not permitted.
Class 2 - Gases
This class is comprised of the following:
- Permanent gases. Gases which cannot be liquefied at ambient temperature
- Liquefied gases . Gases which can become liquid under pressure at ambient
temperature
- Dissolved gases. Gases dissolved under pressure in a solvent, which may be
absorbed in a porous substance
- Deeply refrigerated permanent gases. For example: liquid air and oxygen.
Class 3 - Flammable Liquids
- These are liquids, mixtures of liquids, or liquids containing solids in solution or
in suspension. The flash point of these materials is 14O0F (6O0C) or less by the
closed-cup method or 15O0F (65.50C) or less by the open-cup method.
Class 4 - Flammable Solids
These materials are in three classifications:
1) Flammable solids. Solids, other than those classified as explosives, which are
readily combustible, or may contribute to fire through friction during transport
2) Substances liable to spontaneous combustion. Substances which are
susceptible to spontaneous heating during transport; substances which heat up
in contact with the air and catch fire
3) Substances which emit flammable gases when in contact with water
Class 5 - Oxidizing Substances and Organic Peroxides
These materials are divided into two divisions:
1) Substances which may not combust themselves, but by yielding oxygen, may
contribute to the combustion of other materials.
2) Organic substances which contain the R-O-O-R functional group and may be
considered derivatives of hydrogen peroxide where one or both of the hydrogen
atoms have been replaced by organic radicals. Organic peroxides are thermally
unstable and may undergo exothermic, self-accelerating decomposition.
Class 6 - Toxic and Infectious Substances
These materials are defined as follows:
- Poisonous (toxic) substances. These are likely to either cause death, serious
injury, or harm to human health if they are swallowed, inhaled, or come in
contact with the skin.
- Infectious substances. These contain viable microorganisms or their toxins
which are known, or suspected, to cause disease in animals or humans.
Class 7 - Corrosives
These substances, in the event of leakage, can cause severe damage by chemical
action when in contact with living tissue. The escape of these substances from
their packaging may also cause damage to other cargo or to the transportation unit.
Class 8 - Miscellaneous Dangerous Substances
This class of substances may present a danger during air transport and substances
not covered by another class. These include:
- Magnetized material. A material which has a magnetic strength of 0.002 gauss
or more at a distance of 7 ft from any point on the surface of the assembled
package.
- Other regulated substances. A liquid or solid which is an anesthetic, is noxious,
or has other similar properties which could cause extreme annoyance or
discomfort to humans.
