Houghton Houghto-Quench K

Description

54 Gal Drum. Houghto-Quench K is an accelerated quenching oil suitable for use at temperatures up to 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). it is based upon specialty solvent refined base oil to minimize oxidation and ensure consistent performance under the most arduous of operating conditions. A carefully formulated additive package is incorporated into Houghto-Quench K to reduce the duration of the vapor blanket cooling stage and provide accelerated quenching characteristics, together with excellent oxidation resistance and thermal stability. Applications: The highly accelerated speed provided by Houghto-Quench K 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 hardability. Features: Fast cooling rate in initial stage of quenching-maximum metallurgical and physical properties Minimal drag-out of quenching oil: less smoke and makeup required Excellent oxidation resistance and thermal stability: elimination of waste due to quench oil degradation
