A 25.05 T magnetic field was generated by a 5.11 T superconducting Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox insert magnet within a 19.94 T resistive magnet. The Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox magnet is constructed using fully reacted powder-in-tube conductor and insulated stainless steel reinforcement. Three concentric sections are used to minimize the total stress in the Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox conductor: two double pancake stacks and an outer layer-wound section. The insert coil operates at 4.2 K in a 0.168 m diameter cryostat fitted to the resistive magnet. Here we provide an overview of the design and construction of the insert and the results of self-field and in-field testing. Mechanical and electrical safety issues, related to testing in a large resistive magnet, are discussed.
