Suitable for use in all types of quenching installations including open quench tanks, sealed quench furnaces and continuous furnaces of the shaker hearth, cast link, and mesh belt type
Fast cooling rate in initial stage of quenching maximizes metallurgical and physical properties
Minimal drag-out of quenching oil means less smoke and makeup required
Excellent oxidation resistance and thermal stability means elimination of waste due to quench oil degradation
HOUGHTO-QUENCH® K is a high performance, highly accelerated quenching oil.
Designed to ensure consistent performance under the most arduous of operating conditions.
Carefully formulated additive package is incorporated to reduce the duration of the vapor blanket cooling stage and provide accelerated quenching characteristics, together with excellent oxidation resistance and thermal stability.
Highly accelerated speed enables the development of optimum strength and hardness with minimum distortion in lower hardenability and low alloy steels, heavy sectioned components or steels of borderline hardenability.
