How to get it

  • Crafted
  • Steam store or DLC
  • Worn by NPCs Summer DLC

Repair

At a repair bench, fully worn: 20 Metal Fragments. A half worn one costs half as much.

Condition lost per repair
None, it repairs to full forever
Blueprint needed
No

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% back0 to 1 Gears, 37 to 38 Metal Fragments5s
Barrel recycler40% back0 to 1 Gears, 30 Metal Fragments8s
Powered recycler75% back0 to 1 Gears, 56 to 57 Metal Fragments4s

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.
