Despite regular sandstone having hardness and blast resistances of 0.8, smooth sandstone has a blast resistance of 6 and hardness of 2.

Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb smooth sandstone, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.

Template:Infobox block Smooth sandstone is a variant of Minecraft:sandstone, obtained by smelting.

Obtaining

Breaking

Smooth sandstone can be mined with any Minecraft:pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, the Minecraft:block drops nothing. Template:Breaking row

Despite regular sandstone having hardness and blast resistances of 0.8, smooth sandstone has a blast resistance of 6 and hardness of 2. This is likely due to historical reasons, specifically as a result of hardness being inherited from slab blocks,<ref>Template:Bug</ref> however the "correct"/"expected" values were changed to the "incorrect" values in Template:Editions.<ref>https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/27935763028237</ref>

Natural generation

Smooth sandstone generates in desert villages.

Smelting

Template:Smelting

Usage

Unlike Minecraft:sand, smooth sandstone is never affected by gravity.

Crafting ingredient

Template:Stonecutting

Note blocks

Smooth sandstone can be placed under note blocks to produce "bass drum" sounds.

Sulfur cube

Template:Message box Template:Article other Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb smooth sandstone, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.
