| Green recycler (powered) | 60% | 6 Gun Powder, 6 Metal Fragments |

| Yellow recycler | 40% | 4 Gun Powder, 4 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. “7 + 50%” means 7 every time and a 50% chance of one more.

In Rust, Firecracker String has no player crafting recipe; acquisition relies on map collection, smelting, or vendor trades 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 comparing Firecracker String against related fun in Rust, prioritize farming its highest-probability monument containers or recycling surplus components at an unpowered radtown green recycler (fifty percent base yield, versus forty percent at safe-zone yellow units) because this item cannot be crafted at a player workbench.
