Heat Treatment

Quenching Oils are heat treatment oils blended from solvent refined base oil with specially selected additives that facilitate fast quenching through proper and controlled cooling, and have outstanding chemical and oxidation stability. Quenching Oils also have excellent thermal properties, low volatility, high flash, and fire points.

Quenching Oils serve two primary functions. There are different types of Quenching oils in India that facilitate the hardening of steel by controlling furnaces during quenching, and they enhance the wetting of steel during quenching to minimize the formation of undesirable thermal and transformational gradients which may lead to increased distortion and cracking.
