The injection/extraction systems of the 1.21 GeV Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) damping rings uses four pairs of water cooled septum magnets. Each pair consists of a thin-septum, low-field (3 mm, 3 kilogauss) magnet plus a thick-septum, high-field (12 mm, 8 kilogauss) model. In the latest design cooling reliability was improved by using stainless-steel tubing imbedded in the copper. The operating current in each is 2600 amperes, at a density of up to 120 amperes per mmS. Plasma-sprayed alumina is used to provide electrical insulation. The magnet system is compatible with 10 Z torr ultra-high vacuum. The magnet design, fabrication, and measurements are described.
