Repair Bench (Item)
Deployable,Blueprint
The Repair Bench has 200 health, and a hammer brings it back from broken in four swings.
Each swing charges the share of the cost for 50 health, rounded up to whole resources, and restores as much health as it paid for, which can be more than 50. Nothing can be repaired for 30 seconds after it takes damage.
Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item. “93 + 75%” means 93 every time and a 75% chance of one more.
Repair Bench stats, mechanics, and overview in Rust
In Rust, Repair Bench is a deployable in the Deployables category (item ID #803222026, console shortname box.repair.bench). 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.
You can repair your items here for a fraction of their construction cost. You may also use this to apply new skins to existing items.
Monument recycling yield: Radtown green units return 50% of ingredients (5s cycle), beating 40% yellow safe-zone units by +25%
Maintenance rule: Placed structures heal via direct Hammer strikes after combat cooldowns expire
Conveyor & locker automation: Filter by category or shortname box.repair.bench to auto-stock locker kits and storage boxes
Repair Bench crafting, blueprint progression, and recycling in Rust
Crafting Repair Bench in Rust takes 15 seconds at a Workbench Level 1, 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). Placed structures heal with a Hammer using raw materials from your inventory.
How Repair Bench compares to related deployables in Rust
