The authors report results from four 1.8 m-long dipoles built as part of the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) R and D program. Except for length, these models have the features of the SSC design, which is based on a two-layer cosine theta coil with 4cm aperture. As compared to the 17 m design length SSC dipoles, these 1.8m magnets are a faster and more economical way of testing design changes in field shape, conductor support in the coil straight-section and ends, etc. The four magnets reported here all reach fields in excess of 7.5T with little training and have excellent field shape.
