Uh, no. It would have to be metal. It is normally non-magnetic BUT it CAN be magnetic if combined with one or more metals.

Why does a single phase AC series motor have a very short air gap?

All motors (and, indeed, generators) have a very narrow air gap. This is because the air gap forms part of the machine's magnetic circuit.A 'magnetic circuit' is the path in which the magnetic field produced by the machine's field windings is constrained, and is made up of silicon-steel in series with a very narrow air gap.Air has a very much higher reluctance (equivalent to resistance in an electric circuit) than the silicon-steel part of the magnetic circuit to the formation of flux and, so, must be kept as narrow as possible because reluctance is directly-proportional to the length of the air gap.
