Snow crab · Cluster / section
Snow crab clusters, cooked and frozen
Chionoecetes opilio
An ounce grade tells you the weight of a cluster and nothing else. This specification treats meat fill, count per carton, leg breakage tolerance and glaze as separate contractual fields, because that is how the value of a snow crab shipment is actually determined.
