A 3-T 100-mm winding bore conduction-cooled REBCO magnet has been designed, constructed, and tested. It consists of a stack of double pancake coils wound with metallic cladding (MC) REBCO tapes, for which 1–2 $\mu {\text{m}}$ stainless steel was clad in a hermetic way around the tapes. This approach, first proposed by the SuNAM Company Ltd. in 2015, is expected to substantially reduce the charging time delay of a no-insulation magnet, which in turn will be effective in the manipulation of screening currents in such a way as to improve the field homogeneity of magnets, particularly for nuclear magnetic resonance or MRI. This paper presents test results for our approach on the current sweep cycling, which is used to reduce the screening current-induced fields in a newly constructed 3-T 100-mm MC all-REBCO magnet
