Overview
Mangrove Wood is one of the 18 variants of this shape in the game. What changes between them is the material, and with it the hardness, the drops, the durability and the recipe — so every figure on this page is this variant's own. Oak Wood is the same shape in a different material.
Mangrove Wood is a wooden block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. Mangrove Wood is made at a crafting table. Hardness 2 puts it in the middle of the pack for mining speed.
It drops as the same block you mined. With a blast resistance of only 2 it will not survive an explosion. Sixty-four fit in one inventory slot.
The recipe calls for Mangrove Log. It is an ingredient in 5 recipes, among them Campfire, Mangrove Planks, Smoker and 2 more.
About the mangrove set
How long it takes to break
Mangrove Wood sits at hardness 2: 3 seconds per block with your fists, 0.35 with the correct netherite tool.
Iron takes 0.5 seconds against diamond's 0.4, so the upgrade worth making for this block is the one to iron.
There is no tier requirement to worry about. Any tool, or none, returns the drop; the numbers below just say how fast.
Efficiency adds its level squared plus one to the tool speed, so Efficiency V is about 3.5 times faster than the same tool unenchanted.
| Tool | No enchantment | Efficiency III | Efficiency V |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand | 3 s | 3 s | 3 s |
| Wooden | 1.5 s | 0.25 s | 0.15 s |
| Stone | 0.75 s | 0.25 s | 0.1 s |
| Iron | 0.5 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Diamond | 0.4 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Netherite | 0.35 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Golden | 0.25 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
Properties
Mangrove Wood has a blast resistance of 2, so any explosion nearby destroys it. It blocks light completely and emits no light of its own. One inventory slot holds 64, the normal full stack. It is renewable, so a single world can supply an unlimited amount of it. Flammable, at encouragement 5 and burn 5: build with it away from lava, and do not use it as a wall you care about. The fastest tool for it is an axe; any other kind of tool mines it no faster than a bare hand does, because the speed bonus only applies to the tool class the block is tagged for. As furnace fuel it burns for 15 seconds — one and a half smelting operations.
