No workbench, 15s, yields 1

Every player starts with this blueprint. Researching it anyway costs 10 scrap at a Research Table.
Metal Fragments,
ClothEach 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.
What the Water Purifier gives back in each recycler
| Recycler | Efficiency | You get |
|---|---|---|
| Red recycler | 75% | 7 + 50% Cloth, 75% Empty Propane Tank, 11 + 25% Metal Fragments |
| Green recycler (powered) | 60% | 6 Cloth, 60% Empty Propane Tank, 9 Metal Fragments |
| Green recycler | 50% | 5 Cloth, 50% Empty Propane Tank, 7 + 50% Metal Fragments |
| Yellow recycler | 40% | 4 Cloth, 40% Empty Propane Tank, 6 Metal Fragments |
The Water Purifier breaks down into Cloth, Empty Propane Tank and Metal Fragments.
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. “7 + 50%” means 7 every time and a 50% chance of one more, and a percentage alone is the chance of getting one.
4 skins on the Steam Market change how the Water Purifier looks, from $0.74 to $1.49, and one more is in the item store this week.
In Rust, Water Purifier is a deployable in the Deployables category (item ID #2114754781, console shortname water.purifier). 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 Water Purifier. Place overtop of a campfire. Will provide clean, drinkable water from salty, or stagnant water.
Crafting Water Purifier in Rust takes 15 seconds by hand without a workbench, 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.
When comparing Water Purifier against related deployables in Rust, craft copies once the blueprint is unlocked (15 seconds per craft) and recycle surplus spares at an unpowered radtown green recycler (fifty percent base efficiency) rather than a safe-zone yellow recycler (forty percent efficiency) to maximize recovered materials.
| Item | Category | Stack Limit | Craft / Source | Tech Tree / Research | Green Recycler Yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Water Purifier | Deployables | 1 per slot | Crafted by hand | 10 scrap (Table) | Not recyclable |
| Water Barrel | Deployables | 1 per slot | Crafted by hand | 15 node / 150 path | Not recyclable |
| Two Sided Hanging Sign | Deployables | 5 per slot | Crafted by hand | No blueprint | Not recyclable |
| Kayak | Deployables | 1 per slot | Workbench Level 1 | 15 node / 60 path | Not recyclable |

To compare Water Purifier against every item in its inventory category, browse All 168 items in Deployables.
The Water Purifier has 150 health once placed in Rust. It belongs to the Deployables category under numeric ID 2114754781 across 168 deployables, while F1 console command inventory.giveid 2114754781 1 spawns 1 unit for testing across 168 published Deployables entries (158 with crafting blueprints).
The Water Purifier is crafted by hand from 1 Empty Propane Tank, 15 Metal Fragments and 10 Cloth 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 Water Purifier recycles in Rust at an unpowered green recycler into 5 Cloth, a 50% chance of an Empty Propane Tank and 7 Metal Fragments plus a 50% chance of one more. It belongs to the Deployables category under numeric ID 2114754781 across 168 deployables.
The Water Purifier takes 15 seconds to craft, down to 3.75 seconds at Workbench Level 2 or 3 in Rust. It belongs to the Deployables category under numeric ID 2114754781 across 168 deployables and despawns after 5 minutes when dropped on a default server.
The Water Purifier repairs in Rust once placed with a Hammer for up to 57 Metal Fragments and 5 Cloth at full wear (3 swings). Hammer repairs draw materials straight from your inventory with zero maximum-health penalty, provided the placed object has not taken damage within the last 30 seconds.
Every player starts with the Water Purifier blueprint, so it never needs researching; a Research Table would still charge 10 scrap for it in Rust. It belongs to the Deployables category under numeric ID 2114754781 across 168 deployables, stacking to 1 unit per slot.
Dropped on the ground in Rust, the Water Purifier despawns after 5 minutes by default. Picking it back up into a player inventory or storing it inside a base container immediately resets that ground despawn timer, which the server scales by item rarity tier.
The Water Purifier has 32-bit signed item ID 2114754781 and shortname water.purifier 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 Water Purifier in the F1 developer console by typing inventory.give water.purifier 1 or inventory.giveid 2114754781 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.
