Sandstone Slab

minecraft:sandstone_slab

The Sandstone Slab is a half-height block in Minecraft made from sandstone. It is crafted from Sandstone or Chiseled Sandstone, and it can hold water, which lets it become waterlogged.

Players break it with a pickaxe, and it drops itself when mined. Besides serving as a building block, it is used as an ingredient in one crafting recipe.
