Isothermal Quench Furnaces

Quenching in salt produces lower internal stresses resulting in minimal distortion and cracks when compared to quenching in oil.

Features Include:

  • Cooling provided by internal coils, using water injection
  • Quenching in salt produces lower internal stresses resulting in minimal distortion and cracks when compared to quenching in oil.
  • Toughness and ductility are increased while same through-hardness is achieved.
  • Continuous filtering and unique sludge removal system control contamination resulting in optimum physical properties.
  • Quenching of heavy cross sections by using water addition to increase quenching severity
  • Quenching power greater than oil at 120°-160° F using water addition.
  • See Data sheet IQ-10 PDF for further details
