Smooth sandstone is a variant of sandstone, obtained by smelting sandstone.

Obtaining

[edit | edit source]

Breaking

[edit | edit source]

Smooth sandstone can be mined with any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, the block drops nothing.

  1. ↑ These durations ignore any other influential factors (e.g., Mining Fatigue) and are measured in seconds. For more information, see Breaking Β§ Speed.

Despite regular sandstone having hardness and blast resistances of 0.8, smooth sandstone has a blast resistance of 6 and hardness of 2. This is likely due to historical reasons, specifically as a result of hardness being inherited from slab blocks,[1] however the "correct"/"expected" values were changed to the "incorrect" values in Bedrock Edition.[2]

Natural generation

[edit | edit source]

Smooth sandstone generates in desert villages.

The textures of smooth sandstone blocks have been changed.
Smooth sandstone now generates in the new desert villages.
1.21.20Preview 1.21.20.21Increased the hardness of smooth sandstone from 0.8 to 2.
Increased the blast resistance of smooth sandstone from 0.8 to 6.
26.20
Experiment
Drop 2 of 2026
Preview 26.20.23Added sulfur cubes, which have the ability to absorb smooth sandstone, providing the football/regular effect to the mob.

Data history

[edit | edit source]

Java Edition

[edit | edit source]
Java Edition
1.513w04aSmooth sandstone exists as a metadata variant of the double slab block (block ID 43): if such a block had a metadata value from 8 to 15, it would use the top texture on all six sides. In practice, this affected stone slabs (creating smooth stone), sandstone slabs (creating this block) and quartz slabs (creating smooth quartz).
Smooth sandstone existed as block 43, metadata 9.
1.1317w47aThe different type block states for the double_stone_slab IDs have been split up into their own IDs.
Prior to The Flattening, the block's numeral ID was 43.

Bedrock Edition

Bedrock Edition
1.21.20Preview 1.21.20.21The different block states for the sandstone ID have now been split up into their own IDs.
