Description
PACIFIC QUENCH POLYMER is a non flammable, aqueous solution of a liquid organic polymer and a non-nitrite corrosion inhibitor with antimicrobial and foam protection. It is used for the quenching of medium-carbon to high-carbon steel and alloy steels of most grades, including 300 and 400 series stainless steels.
PACIFIC QUENCH POLYMER is readily adapted to induction hardening, both spray and immersion quenching, for such items as spline shafts, gears, crankshafts, camshafts, and other pieces of intricate geometry and different metallurgy. It may follow oxidizing, neutral, or protective atmosphere furnaces of shaker, rotary, batch or continuous design. This quenchant may be used for direct quenching from the forge, for continuous cast quenching, and for general hardening of forged and cast steels and cast irons. It is suitable for use in the hardening of:
- Large alloy parts from tilt-top, car-bottom and pit furnaces
- Forged parts that are quenched directly from the forge
- Sensitive shapes and alloys heated by induction
- Parts processed from continuous and batch-furnace operations employing gas-fired, neutral and carburizing-carbonitriding atmospheres.
Corrosion Protection
PACIFIC QUENCH POLYMER is designed to provide superior corrosion protection for steel, iron, aluminum, brass and copper, and passes both ASTM G 31 and ASTM D 665A.
