Iron Pipe
A pipe for transporting liquids.
Notes
Iron Pipe is a tier 3 solid block that can be placed on walls and is used to transport liquids. It appears as a key ingredient in many advanced industrial machines, including the Blast Furnace, Steam Engine, and both Mechanical and Electric Water Pumps. Because it is required for so many high-tier production and power buildings, towns should plan for a steady supply of iron pipes to avoid bottlenecks as they progress into heavy industry.
