No workbench, 15s, yields 1

Every player starts with this blueprint. Researching it anyway costs 10 scrap at a Research Table.
What the Torch gives back in each recycler
| Recycler | Efficiency | You get |
|---|---|---|
| Red recycler | 75% | 75% Cloth, 75% Low Grade Fuel, 22 + 50% Wood |
| Green recycler (powered) | 60% | 60% Cloth, 60% Low Grade Fuel, 18 Wood |
| Green recycler | 50% | 50% Cloth, 50% Low Grade Fuel, 15 Wood |
| Yellow recycler | 40% | 40% Cloth, 40% Low Grade Fuel, 12 Wood |
The Torch breaks down into Cloth, Low Grade Fuel and Wood.
A recycler takes one at a time.
Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item. “22 + 50%” means 22 every time and a 50% chance of one more, and a percentage alone is the chance of getting one.
One skin on the Steam Market changes how the Torch looks, at $2.19.
In Rust, Torch is a tool in the Tools category (item ID #795236088, console shortname torch). In active play, it follows standard server rules for tool gear across procedural maps. Inventory storage holds a single unit per slot, and uncollected ground drops despawn after 30 seconds.
A Torch. Lights your way at night and can be used as a weapon.
Crafting Torch in Rust takes 15 seconds by hand without a workbench, 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). Equipped and stored units carry no durability wear bar.
When comparing Torch against related tools in Rust, craft copies once the blueprint is unlocked (15 seconds per craft) and recycle surplus spares at an unpowered radtown green recycler (fifty percent base efficiency) rather than a safe-zone yellow recycler (forty percent efficiency) to maximize recovered materials.
| Item | Category | Stack Limit | Craft / Source | Tech Tree / Research | Green Recycler Yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Torch | Tools | 1 per slot | Crafted by hand | 10 scrap (Table) | Not recyclable |
| Water Bucket | Tools | 1 per slot | Crafted by hand | 15 node / 15 path | Not recyclable |
| Wallpaper Tool | Tools | 1 per slot | Crafted by hand | 10 scrap (Table) | Not recyclable |
| Binoculars | Tools | 1 per slot | Crafted by hand | 30 node / 405 path | Not recyclable |

The Torch is crafted by hand from 30 Wood, 1 Cloth and 1 Low Grade Fuel 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 Torch recycles in Rust at an unpowered green recycler into a 50% chance of a Cloth, a 50% chance of a Low Grade Fuel and 15 Wood. Undamaged copies return the full listed yield, whereas worn items scale their recycler output down in proportion to remaining durability.
The Torch takes 15 seconds to craft, down to 3.75 seconds at Workbench Level 2 or 3 in Rust. It is indexed under the Tools category alongside 35 other tools in Rust (item ID 795236088) across 36 published Tools entries (28 with crafting blueprints).
Every player starts with the Torch blueprint, so it never needs researching; a Research Table would still charge 10 scrap for it in Rust. It belongs to the Tools category under numeric ID 795236088 across 36 tools, with F1 console command inventory.giveid 795236088 1.
The Torch has 32-bit signed item ID 795236088 and shortname torch 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 1 unit per slot).
Server administrators in Rust spawn the Torch in the F1 developer console by typing inventory.give torch 1 or inventory.giveid 795236088 1 for a single unit. Both console spawn commands require administrator or moderator privileges on the server, while regular players can bind a quick-craft shortcut key instead.
