Repair

At a repair bench, fully worn: 5 Metal Fragments, 1 High Quality Metal. A half worn one costs half as much.

Condition lost per repair
20% of maximum
Blueprint needed
Yes

Rust stores no repair cost. The bench builds one from the crafting recipe: components are swapped for the first ingredient of their own recipe, then everything is charged at 20% and rounded up.

Recycling

RecyclerReturnsTime
Recycler50% back12 to 13 Metal Fragments, 0 to 1 High Quality Metal5s
Barrel recycler40% back10 Metal Fragments, 0 to 1 High Quality Metal8s
Powered recycler75% back18 to 19 Metal Fragments, 0 to 1 High Quality Metal4s

A range means the last unit is a coin flip rather than a guarantee: half the recipe rarely divides evenly, and the recycler rolls for the remainder.

Tech tree

On the workbench 2 tree, available from the start of it.

No scrap price on the tree itself: every node ships with its cost overridden to -1 and the fallback is not recoverable from the files. The research table price above is a different number and that one is derivable.
