What is the difference between the Mola Structural Kits?
Each Mola Structural Kit contains unique pieces that enable the assembly of different structures and explore different concepts. However, since all the kits are compatible with each other, you can also mix pieces to create and explore new structures. Learn more about the differences between each Mola Kit here.
Which structural systems can I build with Mola Structural Kit 4?
Mola 4 presents structural concepts for you to construct and embark on your structural engineering journey. Moreover, with the components included in the Kit, you can experiment with countless structures. Explore and understand how arches and shell structures work.
Is there any age restriction to use Mola?
Our products are not recommended for children under 14 years old. Mola products contain small magnets and are NOT TOYS. Swallowed magnets can damage internal organs and have resulted in DEATH and SERIOUS INJURIES. Read all safety instructions here.

Mola Structural Kit 4
Get ready for arches and shell structures
In addition to some pieces you may know from previous sets, Mola 4 features an entirely new set of elements designed specifically for creating arches and shell structures.
- Arch bars: Mola 4's new curved spring is designed specifically to simulate arches.
- Foldable origami sheets: To simulate them, we're adding pre-marked sheets in various shapes to simplify the building process—no origami expertise is needed.
- Surface connection: This specially designed connection enables these assemblies by attaching the sheets to a magnet.
What's in the box
The Mola Structural Kit 4 includes 145 pieces along with a comprehensive Book/Manual. With this set, you can build all the examples provided and explore over 100 different structural arrangements.
