Round Miniature and Model Magnets, Army Painter — 1 mm height, metallic gloss, 100 pcs

Round miniature and model magnets by Army Painter are thin, high-strength magnetic discs designed for securing miniature figures, removable model parts and transport-safe storage. The blister pack contains 100 metallic gloss magnets with an overall thickness of 1 mm and a mix of two diameters to suit different modelling needs. These rare-earth magnets provide strong holding force while keeping a low profile, making them suitable for conversions, weapon-swaps and detachable bases where minimal gap and clean joins are required.

Advantages

These Army Painter magnets use high-grade rare-earth material (N52) to deliver a strong magnetic bond in a compact form. The metallic gloss finish gives a neat appearance on exposed edges, and the 1 mm thickness limits added bulk on miniatures and bases. The mixed set includes two diameters so you can match magnet size to the application, reducing the need for drilling larger recesses and enabling precise alignments for modular parts.

Suitable for

• Magnetizing weapons, heads and accessories on miniature figures
• Creating detachable model parts for display or transport
• Securing removable bases or terrain pieces
• Conversions and kitbashing where low-profile magnets are required

Key specifications

• Quantity: 100 pieces
• Thickness: 1 mm
• Diameters: 20 magnets at 5 mm, 80 magnets at 3 mm
• Finish: metallic gloss
• Magnet type: rare-earth (high-grade strength)

How to use

Identify the parts you want to make removable and select an appropriate magnet diameter for each joint. Drill shallow recesses into the miniature or base to accommodate the 1 mm thickness and chosen diameter, taking care to align opposing magnets with correct polarity. Use a small amount of adhesive to secure each magnet in its recess and allow full cure before testing the fit. For finer alignments, test-fit without glue first, then mark positions before final bonding.

Usage recommendations

When handling these high-strength rare-earth magnets, keep fingers and metallic tools clear of the magnet faces to avoid pinching. Store magnets away from electronic devices, credit cards and pacemakers. Use appropriate eye protection when drilling or cutting materials to fit magnets into place.
