Crafting Advanced Reactor Components in Create Nuclear
guide
This guide details the crafting processes for advanced reactor components and related machinery within Create Nuclear. These items are crucial for building a nuclear system that can produce significant SU, potentially over eight million.
Mechanical Crafting
Mechanical Crafting is a process with eight distinct recipes. This method is used for creating several core reactor parts and related materials.
Graphite Rod: Combine 
Graphene with a 
Steel Ingot.
Reactor Controller: Requires a 
Reactor Casing, a 
Netherite Ingot, a 
Smart Observer, an 
Electron Tube, an 
Item Vault, and a 
Nether Star. The Reactor Controller is a key component for managing your reactor.
Reactor Cooler: Craft this by combining a Reactor Casing, 
Reinforced Glass, 
Blue Ice, and a Steel Ingot. Reactor Coolers are part of the coolant system, which uses fluids like Nitrogen to help balance reactor heat and prevent meltdowns.
Reactor Core: To create a Reactor Core, you will need a 
Uranium Bucket, a Reactor Casing, a 
Precision Mechanism, and a Steel Ingot.
Reactor Frame: This component is crafted from a Uranium Bucket, a Reactor Casing, Reinforced Glass, and a Steel Ingot.
Uranium Rod: Produce a Uranium Rod from 
Enriched Yellowcake.
Manual Item Application
Manual Item Application is a crafting method with three recipes. This process involves directly applying one item to another to create a new component.
- Reactor Casing: Combine a
Brass Casing with a Steel Ingot. The Reactor Casing is a foundational part for many other reactor components. 
Reactor Input: Apply a 
Hopper to a Reactor Casing. This component is used to feed materials into your reactor system.
Reactor Output: Apply a 
Shaft to a Reactor Casing. This component is used to extract products or energy from your reactor system.
Reinforced Glass
Reinforced Glass is an important material used in several advanced recipes.
- To craft Reinforced Glass, arrange five
Lead Ingot items with four Reinforced Glass items in a shaped crafting grid. This recipe implies that Reinforced Glass can be crafted using itself as an ingredient, suggesting a method for consolidating or upgrading existing Reinforced Glass with Lead Ingots.
