Description

Iron is a common crafting component which can be mined from Iron Ore, scavenged or salvaged from various locations in 7 Days to Die or crafted using iron based items. Iron can also be obtained from destroying existing metal-like objects. Examples include decaying vehicle frames, air/heating vents, shed metal sheeting, metal barricaded windows, iron store shelves, metal ladders, and much more. Iron can be melted in a Forge to cast Forged Iron, or used to craft various other items. A single piece of Iron weighs 0.5 lb. Iron is also one of the most influential basic resources to a players playthrough.

Crafting

Iron can be extracted from a Forge prior to moving the forge at no loss of materials.

Trivia

You can use Iron to craft Scrap Iron Hatch which can be smelted in a forge for the 40 pts of Iron which are used to craft it. Scrap Iron Hatch will stack up to 500 therefore, you can hold 20.000 pts of Iron in a single stack for smelting purpose.

-basic robotic turret ammo can be crafted in bulk at the workbench for 2400 iron and can be smelted back down for 3000 iron creating an infinite, though tedious, source of iron.
