Description Permanent magnets (also called ferromagnetic materials) are materials that produce a magnetic field. These materials are usually found in their natural state, such as the iron in a piece of steel. Ferromagnetic materials can also be identified by using a magnet. If the materials can be attracted or repelled by a magnet, they may be ferromagnetic. Common uses of metal permanent magnets include compasses, audio speakers, electric motors, and electric generators.
