As I understand it, 32kg is the "health and safety" limit (or 70lb in the US), although many airlines will restrict their default limit to 23kg or even 20kg, particularly in Economy, charging for anything extra over that up to a limit of 32kg. Usually, anything over 23kg or so gets a "HEAVY" tag, in my experience.
