How to Get Silicone Rubber in Subnautica
To get Silicone Rubber in Subnautica, you’ll need to turn to the Fabricator. This is the device that’s present on Lifepod 5 which you can use to turn a handful of raw and organic materials into something more. It’s the only device on the pod that remained operational after you crash-landed on the planet.
Now, to craft your own Silicone Rubber, you’ll need to head outside and look for Creepvine Seed Cluster which you can pick up from a Creepvine’s body. You can find this flora species at the Kelp Forest. The Seed Clusters are the bioluminescent bulbs that are usually located in the middle of the Creepvine’s body.
Once you have a Creepvine Seed Cluster on hand, return to your Fabricator and start crafting. With only one Creepvine Seed Cluster, you can craft two Silicone Rubbers.
