Shorthand for trinitrotoluene, an [[explosive]] compound primarily used for military purposes due to its high stability allowed it to be stored for long period of time.

Contrary to popular belief, TNT is [b]not[/b] a general-purposes explosive that is widely used in the [[mining]] industry, due to their relatively low explosive yield and high cost compared to [[dynamite]]. The confusion stemmed from various American cartoons that often used the word "TNT" as a catchword for any type of explosives for the sake of simplicity.

For tagging purposes, the tag "TNT" should be used when the [[explosive]] material in question is clearly labelled as "TNT" or its alternate names. If not, tag it as [[dynamite]] (stick explosive) or another identifiable [[bomb|explosive]] type.

May be used with boxes of TNT or bundles/single sticks of dynamite labelled as TNT.
