The '''iron plate''' is a material that can be made by smelting [[iron ore]] in a [[furnace]], or cast by a [[foundry]]{{SA}}.  It is a component or subcomponent of almost every item in Factorio, and it is recommended to create a large stockpile when possible. When smelted in a furnace for a second time, iron plates will transform into [[steel plate]]s, with a ratio of 5 iron plates per 1 steel plate.

The iron plate is a material that can be made by smelting iron ore in a furnace, or cast by a foundry. It is a component or subcomponent of almost every item in Factorio, and it is recommended to create a large stockpile when possible. When smelted in a furnace for a second time, iron plates will transform into steel plates, with a ratio of 5 iron plates per 1 steel plate.

When starting a new freeplay game, the player starts out with 8 iron plates, along with 1 burner mining drill and 1 stone furnace.
