Description and use¶
Rod, Uncommon This iron rod has a button on one end.
You can take a Utilize action to press the button, which causes the rod to become magically fixed in place.
Until you or another creature takes a Utilize action to push the button again, the rod doesn’t move, even if it defies gravity.
The rod can hold up to 8,000 pounds of weight.
More weight causes the rod to deactivate and fall.
A creature can take a Utilize action to make a DC 30 Strength (Athletics) check, moving the fixed rod up to 10 feet on a successful check.

Weight¶
Weight per inventory unit: Not fixed / not specified
DMG rods typically weigh 2–5 lb (PDF page 219); set the actual rod weight.
Counts multiply by inventory quantity. Ammunition quantities count individual pieces; other bundle entries and complete packs use the printed bundle weight. Do not add the same contents separately when using a complete equipment pack. See Carrying capacity for character limits.
