Iron bar



An Iron bar is a bar of refined iron ore. Players can make it with the Smithing skill at level 15 by using an iron ore on a furnace, granting 12.5 Smithing experience.

When a player smelts iron ore, there is a 50% chance that the ore will be too impure to yield an iron bar. When this happens, the iron ore disappears and the player is granted no Smithing experience. However, there is no chance that it will be too impure if a member wears a Ring of Forging while smelting iron ore, or casts Superheat Item on it.

An iron bar can be smithed on an anvil through the Smithing skill to create iron weapons and armour. See the list of iron items that can be smithed from iron bars and the Smithing levels required, and Smithing Iron in the RuneScape manual.
