The 50 GeV proton synchrotron composes the final stage of the high intensity proton accelerator complex now on construction at JAERI/Tokai site as a joint project by KEK and JAERI. In this ring, the proton beam is accelerated from 3 GeV to 50 GeV, and delivered to the experimental facilities through the fast and slow extraction lines. The distinctive feature of the fast extraction line is that the bipolar extraction function will be provided. In normal operations, the beam is extracted toward the inner side of the ring and transported to the facility for the long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment using the Super-Kamiokande detector. In case of emergency, for example, quenches of the superconducting magnets of the neutrino line or malfunctioning of the ring RF systems, the beam is extracted toward the outer side of the ring and sent directly to the abort line with a beam dump at the end. In the current kicker design, the bipolar function will be achieved by the Symmetric Blumlein PFN (SBPFN) system with two switches on both ends. The designed parameters of the fast extraction kicker magnets and the recent hardware R&D status will be described in this paper.
