An R&D proton linac is under construction at FNAL and it will use solenoid lenses in the beam transport line. Because the needed focusing field is on the level of 6 Tesla, superconducting systems are used. In the low energy part of the linac, which uses room temperature accelerating structures, the lenses are placed in stand-alone cryostats. Production of the lenses and cryostats for the low energy section is under way. In the superconducting accelerating sections, the lenses are mounted inside RF cryomodules. Although focusing solenoids for the high energy sections have been designed and prototypes tested, R&D is still ongoing to address magnetic shielding and alignment issues. This report summarizes the performance of lenses for the low-energy part of the linac and presents the status of ongoing R&D.
