Workbench Level 1, 15s, yields 1
Faster at a higher workbench: 7.5s at Workbench Level 2, 3.75s at Workbench Level 3.
Researching the blueprint costs 15 scrap at a Research Table.
What the Anchor gives back in each recycler
| Recycler | Efficiency | You get |
|---|---|---|
| Red recycler | 75% | 187 + 50% Wood |
| Green recycler (powered) | 60% | 150 Wood |
| Green recycler | 50% | 125 Wood |
| Yellow recycler | 40% | 100 Wood |
The Anchor breaks down into Wood.
A recycler takes one at a time.
Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item. “187 + 50%” means 187 every time and a 50% chance of one more.
In Rust, Anchor is a deployable in the Deployables category (item ID #829641693, console shortname anchor). In active play, it follows standard server rules for deployable gear across procedural maps. Inventory storage holds a single unit per slot, and uncollected ground drops despawn after 5 minutes.
A heavy anchor to stop your boat drifting.
Crafting Anchor in Rust takes 15 seconds at a Workbench Level 1 once the 15 scrap blueprint node is unlocked, with all ballistics, crafting, and durability values read from the Rust game files. Shredding a spare copy at a green recycler recovers base materials at fifty percent yield (vs forty percent at safe-zone yellow units). Equipped and stored units carry no durability wear bar.
When choosing between Anchor and related deployables in Rust, prioritize researching a looted or traded copy at a Research Table (15 scrap) whenever you want to skip the 165-scrap tech tree path and save 150 scrap, or unlock the tech tree branch when your group also needs the prerequisite blueprints.
| Item | Category | Stack Limit | Craft / Source | Tech Tree / Research | Green Recycler Yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Anchor | Deployables | 1 per slot | Workbench Level 1 | 15 node / 165 path | Not recyclable |
| Chippy Arcade Game | Deployables | 1 per slot | Workbench Level 1 | No blueprint | Not recyclable |
| Bath Tub Planter | Deployables | 10 per slot | Crafted by hand | No blueprint | Not recyclable |
| Barbeque | Deployables | 1 per slot | Crafted by hand | 10 scrap (Table) | Not recyclable |

The Anchor has 300 health once placed in Rust. It belongs to the Deployables category under numeric ID 829641693 across 168 deployables, while server admins spawn it via inventory.giveid 829641693 1 or queue crafts with craft.add 0 829641693 1 across 168 published Deployables entries.
The Anchor is crafted at a Workbench Level 1 from 250 Wood, once the blueprint is learned in Rust. Raw ores smelt into metal inputs in a furnace while non-craftable components must be looted from monument crates before queuing the craft at your workbench.
The Anchor recycles in Rust at an unpowered green recycler into 125 Wood. It is indexed under the Deployables category alongside 167 other deployables in Rust (item ID 829641693) and despawns after 5 minutes (300 seconds) when left on the ground on default servers.
The Anchor takes 15 seconds to craft, down to 3.75 seconds at Workbench Level 3 in Rust. It belongs to the Deployables category under numeric ID 829641693 across 168 deployables and despawns after 5 minutes when dropped, with F1 console command inventory.giveid 829641693 1.
Blueprint progression for Anchor at Workbench Level 1 in Rust charges 15 scrap on the target node and 165 cumulative scrap along the prerequisite branch, while direct blueprint study at a Research Table charges 15 scrap. It belongs to the Deployables category under numeric ID 829641693 across 168 deployables.
Dropped on the ground in Rust, the Anchor despawns after 5 minutes by default. Moving it into a storage box, locker, or player inventory immediately cancels the ground despawn countdown, which the server assigns by item rarity tier to prevent dropped loot from lagging active worlds.
The Anchor has 32-bit signed item ID 829641693 and shortname anchor in Rust. Server plugins, custom loot tables, Vending Machine listings, and automated Industrial Conveyor filter strings reference these two identifiers under the Deployables category (stack limit 1 unit per slot).
Server administrators in Rust spawn the Anchor in the F1 developer console by typing inventory.give anchor 1 or inventory.giveid 829641693 1 for a single unit. Both console spawn commands require administrator or moderator privileges on the server, while regular players can bind a quick-craft shortcut key instead.
