The Iron Bar is an early-game metal bar, used to create the Iron tier of equipment, along with many other items. It can also be placed on the ground, like furniture. Its alternate ore counterpart is the Lead Bar.

New characters in Journey Mode(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) will always start with Iron tools, regardless of the ore types present in the world.

Tips

• It can be easily acquired if the player finds The Aether(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) and has the Merchant, by buying and de-crafting Iron Anvils.

Trivia

• Pure iron, in reality, is impractical for tools due to its high malleability. Its usage in Terraria more closely resembles real-life steel.
