Product type
Quenching oil is a specialized industrial oil used in the heat treatment process of metals, primarily for quenching. It is formulated to provide rapid cooling of heated metals, which helps in achieving desired hardness and mechanical properties. Typically made from mineral oil or synthetic compounds, quenching oils are designed to have specific viscosity and thermal properties to optimize cooling rates and prevent defects such as cracking or warping.

| Base oil type | Mineral oil or synthetic oil |
| Viscosity grade | ISO VG 10 to ISO VG 68 |
| Flash point | Above 150┬░C |
| Cooling rate | Varies based on formulation and application |
| Additives | Anti-oxidants, anti-foam agents, and corrosion inhibitors |
When selecting quenching oil, consider the specific heat treatment process and the type of metal being treated. Key specifications to request include viscosity, flash point, and cooling characteristics. Additionally, inquire about any relevant certifications or compliance with industry standards. Quantities can vary based on production needs, so be prepared to specify your requirements.
