FAQ
What tool do I need to mine a Polished Blackstone Pressure Plate?
Any tool works, and it drops itself regardless of tool used.
Does it detect dropped items like a wooden pressure plate?
No. Like all stone-type pressure plates, it only triggers for players and mobs, not items or arrows.
Can I use it in crafting recipes?
No, unlike stone pressure plates it has no further crafting use beyond being placed as a redstone component.
Is it waterloggable?
Yes, but only in Bedrock Edition. Java Edition does not allow waterlogging this block.
