Several 40 mm aperture, 17 m long dipoles have been built by Fermilab as developmental prototypes for the Superconducting Super Collider. These magnets differ from those manufactured at Brookhaven National Laboratory in that they have an external inner-outer coil splice design, a collet style end clamp assembly, a new, analytically designed minimum stress coil end design, and a new insulation system which does not employ shims or shoes. In addition, the magnets were built using production-style tooling. The magnets were tested at the Fermilab Magnet Testing Facility. In this paper quench testing and mechanical measurement results are presented and analyzed with emphasis on the design and fabrication features of these magnets.
