Cheese slope

The cheese slope is a 1×1 sloped part with a 30° angle and a height of 2/3 plates. Officially called "Slope 30 1×1×2/3" (design 54200), but nobody says that. The nickname comes from how the thing literally looks like a triangular cheese wedge.

Why AFOLs love them

• Slopes: roofs, terrain edges, organic hills
• SNOT detail: studs mounted sideways give smooth, non-rectangular facets
• Speed Champions scale: car themes use cheese slopes as bumpers, hoods, spoilers
• Mosaics: at 8×8mm each you can build gradients with colour nuances

Available colours

Cheese slopes come in over 50 LEGO colours — one of the widest palettes of any part. That makes them popular for mosaic MOCs and façades.
