Resin Bricks — Minecraft block

Overview

Minecraft classifies Resin Bricks as a building block. A crafting table turns its ingredients into Resin Bricks. Its hardness of 1.5 makes it a normal, unhurried block to mine.

Anything below a wooden pickaxe breaks it without leaving a drop. It drops as the same block you mined. It stacks to 64.

You make it with Resin Brick. 4 recipes call for it, including Resin Brick Slab, Resin Brick Stairs, Resin Brick Wall and 1 more.

How long it takes to break

At a hardness of 1.5, Resin Bricks takes 7.5 seconds to punch out and 0.25 seconds with a netherite-tier tool of the correct class.

You are looking at 0.4 seconds on iron and 0.3 on diamond — the diamond step is where the time actually falls.

The block still breaks with a weaker tool, but below wooden it yields nothing at all — the time is spent and the drop is lost, which is the single most common way players waste a vein.

Efficiency contributes its level squared plus one to tool speed, which makes Efficiency V roughly 2.5 times faster than the plain tool.

Properties

Resin Bricks has a blast resistance of 6, so a nearby explosion will usually destroy it. It blocks light completely and emits no light of its own. One inventory slot holds 64, the normal full stack. A pickaxe 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.
