Warmachine MKIV Warjack Magnetization Recommendations

Warmachine MKIV N52 Magnetization Kit

If you are wondering which magnets fit a Warmachine warjack and how many you need per model, the chart in this post answers both. Privateer Press built the MKIV (MK4) warjack and warbeast plastics around magnetized weapon and head swaps, but the magnets sell separately. The Magnet Baron N52 kit fills that gap with two disc sizes (3/16" x 1/16" and 1/8" x 1/16") sized to drop straight into the pre-drilled cavities. No shimming, no sanding, no glue at the joint. One 30-pack covers any single warjack or warbeast in the chart below; the Orgoth Gharlghast colossal and the Cryx Raptor 2-pack call for two kits.

N52 is the highest commercially available neodymium grade, a meaningful step up from the standard-grade discs typically packaged with hobby magnet kits. That grade choice makes this the strongest Warmachine MKIV magnetization kit you can seat in the pre-engineered cavities; weapons and heads snap home and stay put through movement, transport, and the occasional cat.

How the Two Magnet Sizes Map to a Warjack

The cavity pattern stays consistent across the MKIV range. The 3/16" disc seats in the heavier joints: primary weapon arms on heavy warjacks, head sockets, and the larger weapon hardpoints on Orgoth and Cryx hulls. The 1/8" disc handles the lighter swap points: light warjack arm joints, character upgrade sprues, and the smaller hardpoints on figures like the Cygnar Courser and the Dusk House Eidolon. Both discs are 1/16" thick, so the cavity itself sets seating depth and every magnet lands flush without measurement.

Base Magnets for Warmachine MKIV

Once the warjack is magnetized for weapon swaps, the next step is the base. Warmachine MKIV models sit on 30mm, 40mm, 50mm, and 120mm round bases. The Magnet Baron flush-fit N52 discs and the 50mm peel-and-stick option match each plate size; full sizing details live in the companion post.
