One inventory slot holds 100 of Wool, against 1,000 for most resources.
What Wool gives back in each recycler
| Recycler | Efficiency | You get |
|---|---|---|
| Red recycler | 75% | 3 + 75%  Cloth |
| Green recycler (powered) | 60% | 3 Cloth |
| Green recycler | 50% | 2 + 50% Cloth |
| Yellow recycler | 40% | 2 Cloth |
Wool breaks down into Cloth.
A recycler takes 10 per cycle, so a full stack of 100 goes through in 10 cycles.
Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item. “3 + 75%” means 3 every time and a 75% chance of one more.
In Rust, Wool is a resource in the Resources category (item ID #204391867, console shortname wool). In active play, it follows standard server rules for resource gear across procedural maps. Inventory storage stacks up to 100 units per slot, and uncollected ground drops despawn after 5 minutes.
A bundle of wool. Might be able to take this to a stable to sell.
In Rust, Wool 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 Wool against related resources 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.

Wool has 32-bit signed item ID 204391867 and shortname wool in Rust. Server plugins, custom loot tables, Vending Machine listings, and automated Industrial Conveyor filter strings reference these two identifiers under the Resources category (stack limit 100 units per slot).
Server administrators in Rust spawn Wool in the F1 developer console with inventory.give wool 100 or inventory.giveid 204391867 100 for 100 units. Both console spawn commands work only on dedicated or local worlds where your Steam account holds administrator or moderator privileges.
