Smelting
Smelting iron ore in a furnace or blast furnace is the most common way to obtain iron ingots.
Name | Ingredients | Smelting recipe | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Iron Ingot | Iron Ore + Any fuel |
||
Iron Ingot | Deepslate Iron Ore + Any fuel |
[upcoming: JE 1.17] | |
Iron Ingot | Raw Iron + Any fuel |
[upcoming: JE 1.17] |
Compound creation
Iron Ingot can be created from its base elements, using the compound creator.[Bedrock and Education editions only]
Name | Elements | Example recipe |
---|---|---|
Iron Ingot | Iron |
Mob Loot
Iron golems drop 3-5 iron ingots upon death, regardless of the way they die. The looting enchantment does not increase the amount of iron ingots dropped.
Zombies, husks, and zombie villagers have a 2.5% chance of dropping either an iron ingot, carrot, or potato when killed by a player or tamed wolf. This is increased by 1% per level of looting. This gives iron ingots the following chances of dropping:
- 1⁄120 (about 0.83%)
- 11⁄600 (about 1.83%) with Looting I
- 17⁄600 (about 2.83%) with Looting II
- 23⁄600 (about 3.83%) with Looting III
Usage
Crafting ingredient
Trading
Apprentice-level Armorer, Toolsmith, and Weaponsmith villagers buy 4 iron ingots for an emerald as their third trade.[Bedrock Edition only]
Apprentice-level Armorer villagers have a 50% chance to buy 4 iron ingots for one emerald, and apprentice-level Toolsmith and Weaponsmith villagers always offer to buy 4 iron ingots for one emerald.[Java Edition only]
Repairing
Iron ingots are the repair items for the iron tier and chainmail and iron armor materials, and thus can be used to repair the following items in an anvil:
- Chainmail Helmet
- Chainmail Chestplate
- Chainmail Leggings
- Chainmail Boots
- Iron Helmet
- Iron Chestplate
- Iron Leggings
- Iron Boots
- Iron Sword
- Iron Axe
- Iron Pickaxe
- Iron Shovel
- Iron Hoe
Healing iron golems
In Java Edition, using an iron ingot on an iron golem restores its health by 259px × 12.5.
Beacons
Iron ingots can be used to select powers from a beacon. The player must select one of the available powers, and then insert an ingot in the item slot.
An iron ingot can be substituted for an emerald, a gold ingot, a diamond, or a netherite ingot.
