Steel (Fallout 76)

Steel is a crafting component in Fallout 76.

Characteristics
A common component used in just about everything. It is the most important and widely available building materials available. Steel scrap cannot be sold to vendors until it has been bulked at a tinker's workbench.

Production
Iron ore can be processed at a chemistry station into steel scrap. Note the iron ore cannot be processed from a stash box and must come from the player's inventory (Acid can be crafted directly from the stash box).

Locations

 * Obtained by scrapping ballistic weapons. Scrapper can increase steel yield from scrapping.
 * Steel-yielding junk can be found all around Appalachia.
 * Iron deposits found around Appalachia or workshops yield iron ore.
