Rebar

Rebar is a durable steel rod item used primarily as a crafting ingredient. It functions as a basic metal component in recipes that require sturdy iron/steel material and appears in the game's item lists as a common raw part for manufacturing and construction-related schematics.

Rebar's defining characteristic is its toughness: all language sources describe it as a strong or sturdy steel bar. Its role in gameplay is to act as a modular building block for crafted objects rather than a finished piece of equipment. The phrase "and other things" in multiple localizations indicates that beyond explicit crafting recipes, Rebar is accepted by a variety of systems that consume metal components (for example, general fabrication tables, upgrades, or unspecified mechanical assemblies) rather than being limited to a single use.

• Primary use: input material for crafting recipes that require steel/iron bars.
• Secondary scope: serves in additional, more generic metal-component roles across crafting and construction systems.
• Item identity: described consistently across languages as a sturdy steel bar; treated as a fundamental resource rather than a standalone tool or weapon.

Because Rebar is a basic industrial component, it should be collected and preserved for use in mid- to late-stage fabrication tasks that demand resilient metal parts.
