Useful statistics:

  • Weighs 0.7 tonnes
  • Maximum temperature of 750K (despite its description, it is not able to withstand much heat since 750k is lower than the average).

Informative Stats

  • Weighs 1 tonne
  • Maximum temperature of 750k
  • Impact Tolerance 50m/s

Use Cases: This is a thin piece that has three attachment points. I’m not sure whether it’s worth the effort. It is extremely heavy and could be used as a an lithobrake that has a high impact tolerance.
