Fuel

Uranium Rods are used as fuel for Nuclear Furnaces, with one Rod smelting up to 60 items.

Lighting

Uranium Rods emit a light level of 9 and can be placed on walls, floors, and ceilings, thus allowing players to utilize them as a weak light source.

Particles

Placed Uranium Rods will create small green particles with a light green trail that orbit around them. If another Uranium Rod is placed near the first rod, the particles will fly between the two rods.

Raygun reloading

Uranium Rods are required to reload a depleted Raygun, which completely replenishes the charge meter.

Acid-logging

Uranium Rods are one of a handful of blocks that can be acid-logged.

Trivia
