## Purpose

A Kit (Iron Wall) is used to build a basic wall that is suitable for separating differing atmospheric environments. You can also attach devices on the face side of the wall.

Once the iron walls are placed, the walls are then completed by placing [Iron Sheets](/wiki/iron-sheets) over them, the placement of which does not require tools.
In order to disassemble, the [Crowbar](/wiki/crowbar) is needed to remove the Iron Sheets, then the [Angle Grinder](/wiki/angle-grinder) is used to remove the Iron Walls.


## Characteristics

All variants of Kit (Iron Wall) share the following characteristics:
- They are guaranteed to be airtight.
- They have relatively low resistance to [Pressure](/wiki/pressure) on the face side compared to other [Wall](/wiki/wall)s.
- They have relatively low resistance to [Damage](/wiki/damage) compared to other [Wall](/wiki/wall)s.
- They can be used in the construction of a [Room](/wiki/room).
- They can only hold a pressure differential of 200 kPa. (On [Venus](/wiki/venus) they will fail when Vacuuming)

## Manufacture

| Manufacturer | Requirements |
|---|---|
| [Autolathe](/wiki/autolathe) | 500 [Power](/wiki/power), 1g [Iron](/wiki/iron) |


## Recycling

Kit (Iron Wall)s can be recycled using a [Recycler](/wiki/recycler) in conjunction with a [Centrifuge](/wiki/centrifuge) to yield #g [Iron](/wiki/iron) and #g [Copper](/wiki/copper)


## Destruction

Kit (Iron Wall)s can be destroyed using a [Arc Furnace](/wiki/arc-furnace), a [Furnace](/wiki/furnace) or with multiple shots from a [Weapon](/wiki/weapon)


## Notes

- Iron walls (and windows) start to make a groaning sound when pressure on the face side exceeds 160 kPa, they are not getting damaged yet.
- Iron walls appear to resist infinite pressure on the "frame" side, as long as the "plated" side is exposed to an unsealed vacuum.
- When getting destroyed, the walls yield one [Wreckage](/wiki/wreckage) item and the remaining frame needs to be ground down but will not be returned as a kit anymore.
