Overview
Stone Brick Wall is one of the 15 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. Andesite Wall is the same shape in a different material.
Stone Brick Wall is a stone-family block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. Stone Brick Wall has a crafting recipe, so it is renewable as long as you can source its ingredients. At a hardness of 1.5 it takes a moment to break but never slows a build down.
It needs at least a wooden pickaxe to drop anything; a weaker tool destroys it for nothing. Mining it returns the block itself, so it is safe to relocate. A full stack holds 64.
It is crafted from Stone Bricks. The stonecutter is the cheaper route: one Stone Bricks gives one of these. No recipe takes it as an ingredient.
About the stone set
How long it takes to break
At a hardness of 1.5, Stone Brick Wall 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.
| Tool | No enchantment | Efficiency III | Efficiency V |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand * | 7.5 s | 7.5 s | 7.5 s |
| Wooden | 1.2 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Stone | 0.6 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Iron | 0.4 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
| Diamond | 0.3 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
| Netherite | 0.25 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
| Golden | 0.2 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
Properties
Stone Brick Wall resists blasts at 6, which usually is not enough when something explodes nearby. Light does not pass through it, and it emits none of its own. 64 fit in a slot — a full stack. The block is tagged for pickaxes, and only that class gets the speed bonus; everything else mines at bare-hand rate.
