Overview
Pale Oak Pressure Plate is one of the 13 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 Pressure Plate is the same shape in a different material.
Pale Oak Pressure Plate counts as a redstone block in Minecraft 1.21.4. Pale Oak Pressure Plate is made at a crafting table. A hardness of 0.5 means it is one of the quicker blocks to clear.
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 0.5 means a single creeper will clear it away. It stacks to 64. You make it with Pale Oak Planks.
No recipe takes it as an ingredient.
About the pale oak set
How long it takes to break
Pale Oak Pressure Plate has a hardness of 0.5. By hand that is 0.75 seconds per block; with the correct tool at netherite tier it is 0.1 seconds.
An iron tool takes 0.15 seconds and a diamond one 0.1, so the jump that actually matters for this block is the one to diamond.
No particular tool tier is required: any tool, or none at all, still yields the drop, so the table below is about speed rather than about whether you get anything.
Efficiency adds its level squared plus one to the tool speed, so Efficiency V is about 2 times faster than the same tool unenchanted.
| Tool | No enchantment | Efficiency III | Efficiency V |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand | 0.75 s | 0.75 s | 0.75 s |
| Wooden | 0.4 s | 0.1 s | instant |
| Stone | 0.2 s | 0.1 s | instant |
| Iron | 0.15 s | instant | instant |
| Diamond | 0.1 s | instant | instant |
| Netherite | 0.1 s | instant | instant |
| Golden | 0.1 s | instant | instant |
Properties
With 0.5 blast resistance Pale Oak Pressure Plate goes down to any nearby explosion. It is transparent to light and produces no light. One inventory slot holds 64, the normal full stack. An axe is the fastest choice here. A tool of the wrong class is no better than your fist — the speed bonus is tied to the block's own tool tag. As furnace fuel it burns for 15 seconds — one and a half smelting operations.
