Abstract
This paper presents data on 3 of the important mechanical properties of SSC type superconducting coils. The measured properties are: 1) The azimuthal elastic modulus of the coil samples made for the stress relaxation tests. 2) The rate of stress - relaxation of collared SSC outer coils molded to different sizes and 3) The pressures that various insulations can withstand during molding or collaring before turn-to-turn shorts develop. Additional data on these and other properties are available but omitted here because of space limitations.
