Hardened Glass

This feature is exclusive to Bedrock Edition and Minecraft Education.

This page describes an education-related feature.

This feature is available only in Minecraft Education or when enabling the "Education" option in Bedrock Edition.

Hardened glass is a type of glass that has been chemically strengthened. It is available in clear and colored variants, similarly to normal glass.

Obtaining

Breaking

Unlike normal glass, hardened glass drops itself when broken with any tool or by hand. It also takes significantly longer to break.

Usage

Most blocks that require placement on a solid block can be placed on hardened glass or hardened stained glass. Torches and redstone torches, which can be placed on top of the hardened glass blocks, attaching to their sides is also proven possible.

Hardened glass blocks adjacent to other hardened glass blocks are invisible when viewed through the glass, but not when viewed through normal glass.
