Iron Bar Mold is a heavy iron casting mold shaped for a bar. It is a reusable tool for metal casting at a furnace.
The Cast Iron Bar recipe pours molten iron into it to make an Iron Bar. The Cast Steel Bar recipe does the same with steel at an Advanced Furnace. The mold is kept every time.
It turns up only very rarely in garages and storage units. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
The Cast Iron Bar recipe takes four crucibles of molten iron, either large or small. It also takes four Charcoal and tongs or crude tongs. It runs at a Simple Furnace or better. The result is one Iron Bar, and the mold is kept.
The Cast Steel Bar recipe takes four crucibles with steel and four Charcoal at an Advanced Furnace. The result is one Steel Bar.
A Ceramic Bar Mold or a Steel Bar Mold fits the same recipes. Casting is the way to make bars straight from molten metal, without hammering chunks at a forge.

The mold is a very rare find. Garage crates are the likeliest place. Storage units hold one only on rare occasions.
The places where it spawns, with the rough chance per container. Each tab shows one kind of place.

| Storage unit | Other | <0.1% |
Notes
- The mold is never used up by casting.
- Molten iron comes from melting ore, blooms or old iron items in a Large Ceramic Crucible.
- A Ceramic Bar Mold does the same job when no iron mold turns up.
