Green recycler50%2 Beancan Grenade, 50% Rope, 50% Small Stash
Yellow recycler40%1 + 60% Beancan Grenade, 40% Rope, 40% Small Stash

The Satchel Charge breaks down into Beancan Grenade, Rope and Small Stash.

A recycler takes them one at a time, so a full stack of 10 goes through in 10 cycles.

Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item. “2 + 40%” means 2 every time and a 40% chance of one more, and a percentage alone is the chance of getting one.

Satchel Charge stats, mechanics, and overview in Rust

In Rust, Satchel Charge is a explosive in the Tools category (item ID #-1878475007, console shortname explosive.satchel). In active play, it follows standard server rules for explosive gear across procedural maps. Inventory storage stacks up to 10 units per slot, and uncollected ground drops despawn after 40 minutes.

Small explosive package constructed of beancan grenades. Useful for destroying wood and sheet metal doors.

  • Blueprint unlock savings (game files): Research Table study (60 scrap) saves 450 scrap (88% less) vs the 510-scrap tech tree branch
  • Monument recycling yield: Radtown green units return 50% of ingredients (5s cycle), beating 40% yellow safe-zone units by +25%
  • Maintenance rule: Carries no condition wear bar and needs no bench maintenance
  • Conveyor & locker automation: Filter by category or shortname explosive.satchel to auto-stock locker kits and storage boxes

The Satchel Charge is crafted at a Workbench Level 1 from 4 Beancan Grenade, 1 Small Stash and 1 Rope, once the blueprint is learned in Rust. Non-craftable components like Rope must be looted from monument crates or recycled gear before queuing the craft at your bench.

How long does the Satchel Charge take to despawn in Rust?

Dropped on the ground in Rust, the Satchel Charge despawns after 40 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.

What is the item ID for the Satchel Charge in Rust?

The Satchel Charge has 32-bit signed item ID -1878475007 and shortname explosive.satchel in Rust. Server plugins, custom loot tables, Vending Machine listings, and automated Industrial Conveyor filter strings reference these two identifiers under the Tools category (stack limit 10 units per slot).

What is the give command for the Satchel Charge in Rust?

Server administrators in Rust spawn the Satchel Charge in the F1 developer console with inventory.give explosive.satchel 10 or inventory.giveid -1878475007 10 for 10 units. Both console spawn commands require administrator or moderator privileges on the server, while regular players can bind a quick-craft shortcut key instead.
