A Rubber Tree from MineFactory Reloaded

The MineFactory Reloaded Rubber Tree grows similarly to an Oak tree, but with darker green leaves and a smoother, slightly ruddy trunk. It is most common in swamp areas, but can also be found in most biomes. Unlike the IC2 Rubber Tree, this Rubber Tree must be cut down to harvest the Rubber. A single Rubber will drop along with each Rubber Wood.

Usage

Most noticeably, one receives rubber from the tree, which can be smelted into a rubber bar. This rubber bar can then be used in MineFactory Reloaded recipes and also in place of IndustrialCraft 2's rubber in recipes such as insulated copper cable.

It is also possible to centrifuge the resulting rubber wood in the industrial centrifuge. Placing 16 rubber wood logs into the industrial centrifuge, along with 5 empty cells, results in 8 sticky resin, 1 methane cell, 4 carbon cells, and 6 plantballs.

Crafting planks from rubber wood using traditional methods (eg. a crafting bench or the inventory crafting slots) yields only 3 planks. When used in a sawmill, one receives 4 planks, as well as having a 33% chance of receiving 1 sticky resin. When processed in an industrial sawmill, rubber wood produces 1 sticky resin and 16 wood pulp per wood. It should be noted that rubber wood planks do not exist, so the wood becomes jungle planks.

The wood logs can also be used in place of other types of wood in most recipes. It can be used as fuel in a furnace or generator, or with a steam boiler powered by a solid fueled firebox. It may also be smelted into charcoal, with that fuel being used where appropriate.
