The Heavy Fuse breaks down into Scrap.

A recycler takes them one at a time, so a full stack of 3 goes through in 3 cycles.

Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item. Scrap keeps its decimals: the recycler pays whole pieces and carries the rest into its next payout. Scrap per stack is for one full stack of the item.
