Overview
Minecraft classifies Chain as a building block. You craft Chain rather than find it ready-made. A hardness of 5 makes it slow going without the right tool.
Anything below a wooden pickaxe breaks it without leaving a drop. It drops as the same block you mined. Light passes through it, so it will not darken the space behind it.
Sixty-four fit in one inventory slot. The recipe calls for Iron Nugget and Iron Ingot. It is an ingredient in 12 recipes, among them Acacia Hanging Sign, Bamboo Hanging Sign, Birch Hanging Sign and 9 more.
