These oils have been specially designed for use in sealed integral quench-furnaces. Their high resistance to vaporization prevents the furnace atmosphere from being affected by oil vapours and also ensures rapid decay of the vapour blanket on quenching. In this way, all the parts in the batch are uniformly, and rapidly, cooled.
ISORAPID
As a result of their high resistance to vaporization these oils are also particularly useful in continuous furnaces, where large quantities of components (usually small parts) reach the oil-bath simultaneously and it is therfore important to avoid the formation of a long lasting vapour cushion.
Additionally it should be noted that using high vaporization stability oils in open quench tanks will also reduce smoke and flame formation. This can be extremly beneficial when direct quenching from forging temperatures or quenching in pit furnaces.
FASTQUENCH
Extremely stable evaporation specialty oils, semi-synthetic; with exceptionally high quenching speed but low distortion.
SYNTHERM
Biodegradable quenching fluids based on synthetic and natural oils with the highest quenching capacity.
