Advanced Polymer Quenchant
DESCRIPTION
Aqua-Quench C is an advanced polymer quenchant designed for both low and high harden-ability steel applications including forged parts, coils of wire and bar stock. In special steels, martensitic stainless and titanium alloys.
APPLICATION
The quenching characteristics of Aqua-Quench C can be varied between those of water and normal speed cold quenching oil by varying the concentration of the solution. The concentration of Aqua-Quench C must be regularly controlled by:
Refractometer: a workshop method, easy and rapid, adapted to clean solutions
Kinematic Viscosity: a more effective method of control
Aqua-Quench C can be used in many different types of furnace applications including continuous mesh belt, shaker hearth and rotary furnaces as well as for direct quenching into open quench tanks.

FEATURES/ BENEFITS
· Advanced polymer quenchant providing oil-like quenching characteristics and less distortion eliminating the need for re-work
· Water based quenchant to eliminate fire hazard and smoke associated with quenching oils along with cleaner parts and safer working environment
· Flexibility of quenching speed helps to minimize distortion and provide excellent dimensional control
· Nitrite free corrosion inhibitor providing good short term rust protection of heat treated components
