The primary focus of this work is to numerically investigate the influence of temperature dependent viscosity and thermal conductivity on hydromagnetic flow over slendering stretching sheet. In the process held at high temperature like glass blowing, the fluid properties like viscosity and thermal conductivity may gets influenced in such temperature which motivated us to analyze those kind of problem. Considering steady, two dimensional, nonlinear, laminar flow of an incompressible, viscous and electrically conducting fluid over a stretching sheet with variable thickness in the presence of variable magnetic field. Numerical computations are carried out for various values of the physical parameters and the effects over the velocity and temperature are analyzed. Numerical values of dimensionless skin friction coefficient and non-dimensional rate of heat transfer are also obtained and presented in tabulated form. It is noticed that, in additional to the magnetic field there are two more regulators which can manipulate to maintain the optimal heat for the glass blowing process to attain required shapes.
