In six-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the quarter 6-cubic honeycomb is a uniform space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). It has half the vertices of the 6-demicubic honeycomb, and a quarter of the vertices of a 6-cube honeycomb. Its facets are 6-demicubes, stericated 6-demicubes, and {3,3}×{3,3} duoprisms.

This honeycomb is one of 41 uniform honycombs constructed by the D ~ 6 Coxeter group, all but 6 repeated in other families by extended symmetry, seen in the graph symmetry of rings in the Coxeter–Dynkin diagrams. The 41 permutations are listed with its highest extended symmetry, and related B ~ 6 and C ~ 6 constructions:
