How to get it
- Crafted
- Found in loot
- Bought from a vendor for 40 Scrap
Repair
At a repair bench, fully worn: 14 Metal Fragments. 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
| Recycler | Returns | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Recycler50% back | 35 Metal Fragments | 5s |
| Barrel recycler40% back | 28 Metal Fragments | 8s |
| Powered recycler75% back | 52 to 53 Metal Fragments | 4s |
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.

The chance that a freshly spawned container, or a killed NPC, gives you at least one Medium Quality Spark Plugs. Best chance first. Some containers hand it over already damaged, and which container it came from is what decides that.
