The most efficient way to make screws from Iron Ingots is converting it to Steel Ingots via the solid steel alternate recipe. The Steel should be used to make Iron Rods which make four screws. This has an efficiency of 24 screws per Iron Ingot or 16 per Steel Ingot. If the steel is used to make Steel Beams you will get only 13 screws per Steel Ingot.

Logistical challenge[edit | edit source]
As one of the low-compression items, transporting them to the next machine that requires them can be a challenge during the early game, due to the relatively low throughput of the belt and high-consumption rate of screws. Use the following arrangement for the production of Reinforced Iron Plate and Rotor:
Trivia[edit | edit source]

- Although it appears as a box of screws, it is only counted as one item.
- 27 Screws are used in Drop Pods.
