Similar to 3/16 x 1/32.

I bought this item on Ebay, works great on the tanks included in Open Fire:

20 Neodymium Magnets 3/16 x 1/32 Disc Rare Earth N42

Incidentally if you want to magnatise PSC tanks,you can get 4mm wide rare earth magnets on e-bay. They fit straight into the holes in the PSC hulls, which is great as trying to widen them for the Battlefront ones is a nightmare!
