—
In the initial stages of the quench, 50 QUENCH OIL cools like water. As the cooling nears the martensite formation range, this remarkable oil cools the steel slowly and uniformly to preclude cracking or distortion.
The recommended operating temperature range is ambient to 120°F. Most quenching oils flash at about 350°F. The flash point of 50 QUENCH OIL is 275°F.
Without proper agitation and cooling a risk of fire exists. Operate only using “Bath Parameters”!
