Steel Ingot — Detailed Guide
Steel for Primitive Plus
This Steel Ingot is a resource from Primitive Plus, the Primitive+ DLC for ARK: Survival Evolved. The item text describes how it is made: "Created by refining iron ore and carbon in a Forge." According to the ARK Wiki, one Iron Ingot and 2 Carbon go into a 
Refining Forge for each ingot; our records give 20 seconds per ingot and 1 XP. Iron ingots that were taken out of the forge can be put back later to become steel.
A known crafting bug
The wiki reports a long-running bug in Primitive Plus, more than a year old with no fix date: Carbon cannot go into the Forge, so for now Steel Ingots cannot be made.

Our recipe data lists 15 ASE recipes that use Steel Ingot, most of them structures plus two axes. The largest amounts:
Steel Locker: 750- Barrel of
Gunpowder: 200 - Oil Tank and Steel Water Tower: 75 each
