The Head Bag has no durability bar in Rust and never loses condition in storage or on the belt, so condition never degrades during use. Grouped with 50 misc entries under Misc, it stacks to 1 per slot and despawns in 5 minutes.

How many inventory slots does the Head Bag take in Rust?

What happens when the Head Bag is dropped on the ground in Rust?

The Head Bag remains on the ground for 5 minutes (300 seconds) before despawning on a default Rust server. Picking it back up into an inventory (up to 1 per slot) or storage box resets that timer under the Misc category (item ID 209218760).
