About

Netherrack is the primary stone block of the Nether, making up most of its terrain. It has low hardness (0.4) and breaks quickly with any tool, making it ideal for rapid excavation or temporary structures. It is stackable to 64 and fully diggable.

On servers, admins often use netherrack for building, since it is plentiful in the Nether and easily renewable. It also serves as fuel in furnaces, burning for a moderate duration. Spawn it directly into a player's inventory with the give command.
