Magenta Wool Slab

Description

Magenta Wool Slab is a craftable half-block of magenta wool, one of sixteen wool slab colors added to Minecraft in Java 26.3 and Bedrock 26.40. Three Magenta Wool blocks placed in one row of a crafting grid produce six Magenta Wool Slabs, and crafting any wool slab with magenta dye recolors the slab magenta, so a palette change never wastes slabs. Magenta Wool Slab stacks to 64 items of the same color, breaks with any tool, and shears work fastest of all.

Magenta Wool Slab is highly flammable, can be destroyed by lava, and can be waterlogged, so keep magenta floors away from open fire. A Magenta Wool Slab placed between a sculk sensor and a vibration source blocks the vibration. Sculk sensors cannot detect players walking, sprinting, or jumping on Magenta Wool Slab, wool slabs being placed or broken, or items dropped on top, and wardens miss the same actions. In Java Edition one Magenta Wool Slab smelts 0.25 items, so four slabs fuel one smelting operation, and three slabs in a row craft one Magenta Cushion. For bright half-step floors and silent corridors past sculk sensors, Magenta Wool Slab pairs a vivid wool tone with vibration-dampened footsteps.

How to craft Magenta Wool Slab in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Collect three Magenta Wool blocks

    Gather three Magenta Wool blocks of the same color for one crafting batch.

  2. 2

    Open a crafting table

    Place the three Magenta Wool blocks in one straight horizontal row of the 3x3 grid.

  3. 3

    Take six slabs

    Collect six Magenta Wool Slabs from the output slot — three wool blocks always yield six slabs.

    Craft any wool slab together with magenta dye to turn the slab magenta without spending new wool.

  5. 5

Frequently asked questions

Which Minecraft versions include Magenta Wool Slab?

Wool slabs were announced at Minecraft Live on May 30, 2026. Java Edition 26.3 snapshots added wool slabs first, and Bedrock Edition received wool slabs in 26.40 previews with full implementation in 26.50.

Can sculk sensors detect Magenta Wool Slab?

No. Sculk sensors cannot detect wool slabs being placed or broken, players walking, sprinting, or jumping on Magenta Wool Slab, or items dropped on top, and wardens cannot detect those actions either. A slab placed between a sensor and a vibration source also blocks the vibration.

Is Magenta Wool Slab renewable (a resource you can farm endlessly)?

Yes, wool slabs are a renewable resource, and magenta dye can recolor any wool slab.

How does Magenta Wool Slab handle fire and explosions?

Magenta Wool Slab is highly flammable and can be destroyed by lava. Blast resistance is 0.8 in Java Edition and only 0.16 in Bedrock Edition, so explosions tear through wool slab floors.

What does Magenta Wool Slab craft into?

Three Magenta Wool Slabs placed in one row craft one Magenta Cushion, and cushions come in the same sixteen wool colors.
