magnetostrictive delay line [mag¦nēd·ō¦strik·tiv di′lā ‚līn]

(electromagnetism)

A delay line made of nickel or other magnetostrictive material, in which the amount of delay is determined by a shock wave traveling through the length of the line at the speed of sound.

(storage, history)

magnetostrictive delay line - An early storage device that used tensioned wires of nickel alloy carrying longitudinal waves produced and detected electromagnetically.

They had better storage behaviour than mercury delay lines.
