Researching the blueprint costs 15 scrap at a Research Table.
Crates, barrels and NPCs that drop the Splitter, most likely first
| From | Chance | Amount |
|---|---|---|
 Normal Crate | 1.3% | 1 to 2 |
 Wagon Normal Crate | 1.3% | 1 to 2 |
 Sunken Chest | 1.1% | 1 |
Scientist | 0.16% | 1 |
Tunnel Dweller and Underwater Dweller | 0.16% | 1 |
Chance is for one container opened or one NPC killed. Amount is how many it holds when it holds any.
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.
What the Splitter gives back in each recycler
| Recycler | Efficiency | You get |
|---|---|---|
| Red recycler | 75% | 75 Metal Fragments |
| Green recycler (powered) | 60% | 60 Metal Fragments |
| Green recycler | 50% | 50 Metal Fragments |
| Yellow recycler | 40% | 40 Metal Fragments |
The Splitter breaks down into Metal Fragments.
A recycler takes them one at a time, so a full stack of 5 goes through in 5 cycles.
Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item.
In Rust, Splitter is a electrical in the Electrical category (item ID #-563624462, console shortname electric.splitter). In active play, it follows standard server rules for electrical gear across procedural maps. Inventory storage stacks up to 5 units per slot, and uncollected ground drops despawn after 5 minutes.
Splits an electrical signal into 3 multiple signals. the amount passed through is equal to the input amount divided by the number of used output slots.
Crafting Splitter 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). Placed structures heal with a Hammer using raw materials from your inventory.
Only two of the 83 electrical items have more health than the Splitter.
The Splitter has 500 health, as do the Computer Station and the Electric Furnace.
When choosing between Splitter and related electrical in Rust, prioritize researching a looted or traded copy at a Research Table (15 scrap) whenever you want to skip the 135-scrap tech tree path and save 120 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Splitter | Electrical | 5 per slot | Workbench Level 1 | 15 node / 135 path | Not recyclable |
| Industrial Splitter | Electrical | 5 per slot | Workbench Level 1 | 15 node / 330 path | Not recyclable |
| Fluid Splitter | Electrical | 5 per slot | Workbench Level 1 | 15 node / 195 path | Not recyclable |
| Twitch Rivals Neon Sign | Electrical | 1 per slot | Crafted by hand | No blueprint | Not recyclable |

The Splitter has 500 health once placed in Rust. It belongs to the Electrical category under numeric ID -563624462 across 83 electrical, while server admins spawn it via inventory.giveid -563624462 5 or queue crafts with craft.add 0 -563624462 1 across 83 published Electrical entries.
The Splitter is crafted at a Workbench Level 1 from 100 Metal Fragments, 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 Splitter drops from 5 container and NPC loot tables in Rust, led by Normal Crate (1.3% chance), Wagon Normal Crate (1.3% chance), and Sunken Chest (1.1% chance). Each listed probability reflects a single container opened or NPC killed, and found copies can be repaired or researched at base.
The Splitter recycles in Rust at an unpowered green recycler into 50 Metal Fragments. It belongs to the Electrical category under numeric ID -563624462 across 83 electrical, while F1 console command inventory.giveid -563624462 5 spawns 5 units for testing across 83 published Electrical entries.
The Splitter takes 15 seconds to craft, down to 3.75 seconds at Workbench Level 3 in Rust. It sits in the Electrical catalog with item ID -563624462 alongside 82 related electrical, stacking to 5 units per slot, with F1 console command inventory.giveid -563624462 5.
The Splitter repairs in Rust once placed with a Hammer for up to 50 Metal Fragments at full wear (10 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.
Blueprint progression for Splitter at Engineering Workbench in Rust charges 15 scrap on the target node and 135 cumulative scrap along the prerequisite branch, while direct blueprint study at a Research Table charges 15 scrap. Researching a looted copy at a Research Table saves 120 scrap over the tech tree path.
Dropped on the ground in Rust, the Splitter 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 Splitter has 32-bit signed item ID -563624462 and shortname electric.splitter in Rust. Server plugins, custom loot tables, Vending Machine listings, and automated Industrial Conveyor filter strings reference these two identifiers under the Electrical category (stack limit 5 units per slot).
Server administrators in Rust spawn the Splitter in the F1 developer console with inventory.give electric.splitter 5 or inventory.giveid -563624462 5 for 5 units. Both console spawn commands require administrator or moderator privileges on the server, while regular players can bind a quick-craft shortcut key instead.
