Overview
Stone Button 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 Button is the same shape in a different material.
Stone Button is a redstone block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. Stone Button 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 Stone.
No recipe takes it as an ingredient.
About the stone set
How long it takes to break
Stone Button 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.
You are looking at 0.15 seconds on iron and 0.1 on diamond — the diamond step is where the time actually falls.
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 2 times faster than an unenchanted one.
| 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
Stone Button resists blasts at 0.5, which is not enough to survive anything explosive nearby. Light passes through it, and it emits none of its own. Stack size is 64 — the standard full stack. The fastest tool for it is a pickaxe; 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.
