Abstract
Magnetic BPS string solutions preserving quarter of supersymmetry are obtai ned for all abelian gauged d=5 N=2 supergravity theories coupled to Vector supermultiplets. Due to a "generalised Dirac quantization" condition satisf ied by the minimized magnetic central charge, the string metric takes a uni versal form for all five dimensional gauged theories.
