Applications

 N/A Iloquench 32 is a general purpose accelerated quenching oil. It offers a medium quenching speed which makes it suitable for fully hardening small parts made of plain carbon steels, like fasteners and high carbon spring wire as well as for use on intricate parts where interfering distortion might be expected during quenching in extremely fast quenching oils.

Consequently, Iloquench 32 can also be used for distortion-prone work, such as large carburized transmission gears, plastic moulds and large bearing rings, balls and rollers made of alloy steels.

Iloquench 32 is suitable for use in continuous furnaces and open quench tanks. It may also be employed for quenching parts heated in cyanide salt baths.

Directions for Use

 N/A Optimum working temperatures range for Iloquench 32: 20°C - 80°C.

Avoid water entry into storage tanks or quench baths.

Features and Benefits

 N/A
  • Blended using high quality, solvent-refined base stocks and additives - aids consistent accelerated quenching performance and metallurgical standards of output
  • Low viscosity - ensures minimum drag out losses and enables effective heat transfer
  • High flash point - reduces fire risk
  • Low percentage of volatile fractions - reduces losses due to evaporation and improves working conditions due to low fuming
  • Good resistant to oxidation and thermal degradation - reduces sludge and acid build-up and leads to a longer service life
  • Absence of tars and asphaltic matter - leads to clean components free of stains, patches, spots and marbling aspects and facilitates easy removal of the oil film if required
  • Compatible with most methods of component heating, including salt bath heating

Storage and Handling

 N/A To avoid product deterioration always keep the container/drum tightly sealed. Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Prevent exposure to frost and avoid water ingress. For optimum product stability, it is preferable to store the product indoors between 5°C and 45 °C / 41°F and 113°F.
