In ERG 2024, Guide 166 is titled “Radioactive Materials - Corrosive (Uranium Hexafluoride/Water-Reactive)”.

Guide 166 covers 3 UN/NA numbers and 5 material names in ERG 2024. None of them carries the letter P (166P). 3 are highlighted in green and listed in Table 1: UN/NA 2977 (Radioactive material, uranium hexafluoride, fissile); UN/NA 2978 (Radioactive material, uranium hexafluoride, non fissile or fissile-excepted) and UN/NA 3507 (Uranium hexafluoride, radioactive material, excepted package, less than 0.1 kg per package, non-fissile or fissile-excepted). 3 appear in Table 2 as water-reactive materials that produce toxic gases: UN/NA 2977 (Radioactive material, uranium hexafluoride, fissile: HF); UN/NA 2978 (Radioactive material, uranium hexafluoride, non fissile or fissile-excepted: HF) and UN/NA 3507 (Uranium hexafluoride, radioactive material, excepted package, less than 0.1 kg per package, non-fissile or fissile-excepted: HF).

The Spanish edition (GRE 2024) titles this guide “Materiales Radiactivos - Corrosivos (hexafluoruro de uranio / reactivos con el agua)”, and the French edition (GMU 2024) “Matières radioactives - Corrosives (Hexafluorure d'uranium/réagissant à l'eau)”.
