Where to find items that scrap into fiberglass in Fallout 76

Skis and telephones have a new purpose in a nuclear winter.

Fiberglass is a commonly used material in armor, energy weapons, and various workshop items in Fallout 76. Stockpiling a large amount of Fiberglass is necessary if you plan on building some of the most useful C.A.M.P. items in the game. Besides its crafting purposes, players will occasionally receive a Seasonal Challenge to scrap items into Fiberglass.

Whether you’re farming fiberglass to create the C.A.M.P. of your dreams or to knock out the Seasonal Challenge, you’ll want to know what the best items that scrap into Fiberglass are. This guide will identify the best Fiberglass items and the most efficient farming locations for each.

Every junk item that scraps into fiberglass in Fallout 76

Jangles the Moon Monkey1
Rat poison1
Telephone*1

Despite having many different types of junk items that yield fiberglass, two of these items stand out. Composite Skis and Telephones are the best items for farming fiberglass since they can be conveniently found in large quantities across the Appalachian Wasteland.

The best locations for items that scrap into fiberglass

No matter your carry weight, the following farming locations will leave you with plenty of Fiberglass after a quick scrap run. If you want to optimize these runs, equip “Pocketed” gear and perk cards such as “Strong Back” so you can carry more junk items with each trip.

Composite Skis at Pleasant Valley Ski Resort

The Pleasant Valley Ski Resort is the premier location for finding Composite Skis in Fallout 76. This Composite Ski farming run is simple:

  1. Fast travel to the Pleasant Valley Ski Resort and collect Composite Skis that are found on racks outside of each building.
  2. Head inside the main resort building and down to the vendor area where Ski Swords can be found.
  3. Collect Ski Swords throughout the building since these scrap into Composite Skis.
  4. After clearing out the area, leave the main building and head towards Top of the World. Along the path are crafting stations you can use to scrap your junk and manage your carry weight if it’s already become an issue.
  5. Loot Composite Skis from the many racks found around the Top of the World elevator area.
  6. The Mezzanine Floor of Top of the World has a ton of Composite Skis and Ski Swords. Loot every room and rack that you come across.
  7. Take the elevator to the Observation Floor and grab the two Composite Skis found next to Rose.

Total fiberglass yield: 41

Telephones and Abraxo Cleaner Industrial Grade at Whitesprings

The Whitesprings Resort is a safe zone inside of the refuge and mall areas. Since it’s filled with Telephones, this is safer and easier than the Composite Ski farming run. Although Telephones scrap into one unit of Fiberglass as opposed to two, this farming run is much simpler and doesn’t require as much running around.

  1. Begin at the Whitesprings Refuge fast travel point. Loot all of the Telephones found throughout the vendor rooms and office areas.
  2. Check each of the laundry and maintenance rooms (most of them have a sign that says “Employees Only”) and loot any Abraxo Cleaner Industrial Grade that you can find.
  3. After clearing the Refuge, move to the Whitesprings Mall section of the building and repeat the process.
  4. With the Refuge and Mall cleared, head outside and loot all of the service buildings adjacent to the main Whitesprings Resort building. There are many Abraxo Cleaner Industrial Grade spawns along with other valuable junk items in these buildings.

Total fiberglass yield: 20

The Whitesprings farming run yields half as much Fiberglass as the Pleasant Valley Ski Resort, but it’s free of hostiles, and the building layout is easier to traverse. Either location will provide more than enough Fiberglass to satisfy the Seasonal Challenge requirements. If you’re crafting many Fiberglass-heavy C.A.M.P. objects, you can always do both runs in succession to get 61 Fiberglass rather quickly.
