Steel is a crafting component in Fallout 4.
Characteristics[]
A cheap but highly useful metal alloy of iron and carbon and/or other metals, steel is the most plentiful crafting material, along with wood, found in-game and is a component used in crafting to make various items, including weapon modifications and structures. Steel is also used to repair damaged power armor.
