Steel (the metal formerly known as refined iron) is a metal resource added by IC². It is not generated as ore, but must be created from Iron in a Grid Blast Furnace.png Blast Furnace.

Forms[edit]

As steel has no ore, it does not go through ore processing; steel ingots are produced in a Grid Blast Furnace.png Blast Furnace from iron (in some form) plus 6000 mB of Air, obtained by placing Grid Universal Fluid Cell.png Universal Fluid Cells in a Grid Compressor.png Compressor.

First of all, you need the basic resource for all kind of advanced machines:

It's secret knowledge revealed to you now, but with a little machine, you can actually smelt iron ingots to even better iron ingots called steel! Isn't that great?

They look better AND for sure are much more useful!
