We applied Bi-based superconducting bulk for current leads in a cryocooler cooled supercon ducting magnet using no liquid helium: The bulk has a composition of (Bi+Pb):Sr:Ca:Cu= 2:2:2:3 and is utilized in the form of thin-walled sintered cylindrical tube. Critical current and critical current density of the bulk under self magnetic field at 77K are at 1 ,100A and 1,200 A/cm2, respectively. At a current of 400A, this magnet can generate a steady magnetic field of 4T in a room temperature 38mm
