Overview
Pale Oak Hanging Sign is one of the 12 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 Hanging Sign is the same shape in a different material.
Pale Oak Hanging Sign counts as a functional block in Minecraft 1.21.4. Pale Oak Hanging Sign is made at a crafting table. Hardness 1 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 1 means a single creeper will clear it away. It stacks only to 16. You make it with Chain and Stripped Pale Oak Log.
No recipe takes it as an ingredient.
About the pale oak set
How long it takes to break
At a hardness of 1, Pale Oak Hanging Sign takes 1.5 seconds to punch out and 0.2 seconds with a netherite-tier tool of the correct class.
An iron tool takes 0.25 seconds and a diamond one 0.2, so the jump that actually matters for this block is the one to iron.
Nothing here needs a minimum tier: whatever you swing, the block still drops, and the only difference is how long it takes.
Each Efficiency level adds level² + 1 to the tool's speed, so a level V tool clears this about 4 times faster than an unenchanted one.
| Tool | No enchantment | Efficiency III | Efficiency V |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand | 1.5 s | 1.5 s | 1.5 s |
| Wooden | 0.75 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
| Stone | 0.4 s | 0.15 s | instant |
| Iron | 0.25 s | 0.1 s | instant |
| Diamond | 0.2 s | 0.1 s | instant |
| Netherite | 0.2 s | 0.1 s | instant |
| Golden | 0.15 s | 0.1 s | instant |
Properties
Pale Oak Hanging Sign has a blast resistance of 1, so any explosion nearby destroys it. It lets light through and emits no light of its own. 16 fit in a slot. 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.
