Steel Ingot

Steel Ingots are smelted from Iron Ore and Coal in Foundries. They are used to produce Steel Pipes and Steel Beams.

Tips

 * Solid Steel is the most efficient recipe, due to conserving Coal which is the rarer component, and allowing for the incorporation with a ratio of Iron Ore to ingot greater than 1:1. Additionally, if a large Iron Ingot pipeline is already established, a Solid Steel foundry can draw from that rather than requiring a separate ore stream.
 * Compacted Steel can become useful in mid-to-lategame if Sulfur is available in sufficient amounts.
 * Steel is better than iron for most purposes (using alternate recipes), but iron is better for making Iron Plates, and can also be made into Wire, while steel cannot.

History

 * Patch 0.3: Increased the amount of product from 2 to 3, buffing it by 50%. New alternate recipe is added.
