Updated August 8, 2026Live catalog pricing8 in-stock options

51 ECT is a double-wall corrugated grade — an edge crush rating of 51 lb/inch, roughly the 350 lb burst class — used for dense, stacked, and haz-mat loads. Packrift stocks 8 ECT-51 boxes today from $40.06 per bundle, including UN-certified haz-mat cartons, shipped from 5 US warehouses with live freight at checkout.

When 51 ECT is the right call

Choose ECT-51 when a load is heavy and concentrated — machinery parts, dense hardware, TV-size flat panels — or when boxes ride double-stacked on pallets and the bottom tier carries the pile. The UN-certified haz-mat versions add the certification lab work for regulated contents. For heavy-but-ordinary shipping, ECT-48 double-wall (nearly 200 stocked options) usually does the job for less; the strength ladder is on the ECT-44 size chart and the ECT-to-Mullen conversion table.

Frequently asked questions

What does 51 ECT mean on a box?

ECT-51 is a double-wall corrugated grade with an edge crush test value of 51 lb per inch — roughly the 350 lb burst-test class. It is built for dense, heavy, or stacked loads where a standard ECT-32 single-wall box would bulge or crush.

51 ECT vs 48 ECT — which do I need?

Both are double-wall. ECT-48 (about the 275 lb class) covers most heavy shipping; step up to ECT-51 when contents are very dense, palletized and double-stacked, or when a haz-mat spec calls for a UN-certified pack. If your spec sheet uses burst ratings, see the ECT-to-Mullen conversion chart.
