HOME : MAGNETIC TECHNOLOGY CENTER : REFERENCE MATERIALS : GLOSSARIES

Select a letter: A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H-I-J-K-L-M-N-O-P-Q-R-S-T-U-V-W-X-Y-Z


The following pages contain a comprehensive list of terms and definitions used in the engineering and manufacturing of permanent magnets, precision rolled strip and foil products as well as solenoids.

Also available in the Technology Center section of the Arnold website is a list of reference textbooks many of which also contain glossaries. We strive to continuously improve and would welcome suggestions for terms to include in our glossaries and for advice regarding the definitions. Please send your input to .

The International Magnetics Association, (IMA), formerly the MMPA, has published documents titled Permanent Magnet Guidelines and Standard Specifications for Permanent Magnet Materials both of which contain useful glossaries. The first document also contains a description of magnetic properties and measurement methods. They are available from IMA, 8 South Michigan Avenue, Suite 1000, Chicago, IL 60603; Telephone: 312-456-5590; Fax: 312-580-0165.

A listing of "General Motor Terminology" is included here courtesy of the SMMA, The Motor & Motion Association. If you find the listing helpful, we hope you will visit the SMMA Website and consider active participation in the Association.

For your convenience, we also offer the glossary in PDF format, broken down into subsections. Adobe Acrobat is required.
