Overview
Detector Rail is a redstone block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. Detector Rail is made at a crafting table. Hardness 0.7 puts it in the middle of the pack for mining speed.
No specific tool is required to collect it. Broken correctly, it drops itself. Because it is transparent it does not block light.
A blast resistance of 0.7 means a single creeper will clear it away. It stacks to 64. You make it with Iron Ingot, Stone Pressure Plate and Redstone Dust.
No recipe takes it as an ingredient.
