What is the longest 1×x brick ever released?

Question

Out of curiosity: How long can a 1×x brick be?

When there are differences, I can think of the following categories:

Longest brick ever included in a regular Lego set
Longest brick ever available through other channels
Longest brick produced ever and visible on exhibits or other occasions, but unavailable to the public

EDIT: I am only interested in bricks made by LEGO, clone brands do not count.

Within bricks, do you include plates and tiles? – Craig Aug 06 '19 at 23:48 — Craig, Aug 06 '19 at 23:48
No, this is another question to be asked. – Sir Cornflakes Aug 07 '19 at 08:46 — Sir Cornflakes, Aug 07 '19 at 08:46

If you mean specifically Lego bricks, I'm pretty sure the 1x16 was/is the longest one made. Outside of the 1x? sized bricks, the longest plain shaped brick that I know of is part #30072 or #47122 at 24 studs long. I don't know about other brands though.

Yes, I mean LEGO specifically, I'll add this to my question. – Sir Cornflakes Aug 05 '19 at 11:02

You didn't say anything about modified 1 x bricks.

This is Item 47978 and it is actually listed as a 2x24 brick, because of the added bit in the middle.

Ah, nice find! I wouldn't consider it a brick though being only 2/3 the height. – JohnnyB Aug 06 '19 at 00:25

And no studs, unfortunately. +1 for this nice find, anyway. – Sir Cornflakes Aug 06 '19 at 09:12
