22t

22T is an alphanumeric designation used in multiple domains to refer to different concepts depending on context. It is not a single standard object but a shorthand commonly applied to capacity, gear size, or catalog numbers.

In heavy equipment, construction, and logistics, 22t (22 tonnes) denotes mass or load rating. On cranes, trucks, trailers, and lifting gear, 22t indicates maximum lifting capacity or payload. The t stands for tonnes (metric tons). Engineers and operators may print 22t on data plates, manuals, or equipment labels. The designation can apply to equipment rated for 22 tonnes at a specified outreach or radius, which varies by model.

In mechanical drive systems such as bicycles, motorcycles, and machinery, 22T typically refers to the number of teeth on a gear or sprocket (tooth count). A 22T chainring or front sprocket is common; the tooth count influences gearing and performance.

Other uses include product codes and model numbers in industries like rail, manufacturing, and electronics where 22T is used as a catalog identifier. Because 22T has no universal meaning, the precise definition depends on the context and accompanying units.
