Rubber is a flexible manufactured material used in Cooling Systems, Turbo Motors, Modular Engines, the Hazmat Suit, and the Rifle. The default recipe runs in a Refinery on Crude Oil and produces Heavy Oil Residue alongside Rubber. The crucial bottlenecks are oil supply and residue handling; a full coproduct output can interrupt production.
Filter a resource, then select a marker or location below for its purity, elevation and coordinates. The map is hosted here.

How to craft
Find Crude Oil with the on-page resource map, filter by Crude Oil, inspect node purity, and select an accessible node. Extract node oil with an Oil Extractor. Crude Oil also has wells; use the appropriate well extraction structure when gathering from a well. In randomized version 1.2 worlds, match your settings because the map shows standard layout.
Before you craft
Unlock the Rubber recipe and Refinery.
Crude Oil supply and a plan for Heavy Oil Residue output.
Use the map's Crude Oil filter to locate available nodes or wells.
Inspect node purity and choose an accessible node if using a node.
Place an Oil Extractor on a node, or the appropriate extraction structure on a well.
Pipe Crude Oil to a Refinery and select Rubber.
Provide 3 m³ Crude Oil per batch; collect two Rubber and two m³ Heavy Oil Residue.
Route Rubber to consumers and connect the residue output to a suitable use or disposal plan.
Crafting tips
At 100% clock, the Refinery consumes 30 m³ Crude Oil and produces 20 Rubber plus 20 m³ Heavy Oil Residue per minute.
Keep both fluid inputs and outputs clear to avoid stalls.
Repeat, collect and use
Check oil delivery, Rubber demand, and Heavy Oil Residue capacity whenever production changes.
Common mistakes
Searching for Rubber deposits instead of extracting Crude Oil and refining it.
Ignoring Heavy Oil Residue, which is a coproduct of the default Rubber recipe.
When to stop or switch
Stop expanding when Rubber demand is met and residue output can be handled continuously.
Find Crude Oil with the on-page resource map, filter by Crude Oil, inspect node purity, and select an accessible node. Extract node oil with an Oil Extractor.
