Pennine Ultraquench PQ 133 is a polymer-based, water-soluble quenching fluid designed for a wide range of heat treatment applications.
By simply adjusting the dilution, PQ 133 delivers highly controllable cooling performance, from fast water-like quenching at low concentrations to oil-like cooling characteristics at higher concentrations.
Non-flammable, non-hazardous in use and clean running, Pennine Ultraquench PQ 133 offers a safer, more efficient alternative to traditional oil quenchants while maintaining excellent metallurgical performance.
The optimal dilution depends on part section thickness, component geometry and the mechanical properties required.
Lower concentrations provide faster cooling, while higher concentrations slow the quench to oil-like performance.
Good quality water should be used. It is important to regularly test for high salt levels, particularly chlorides, as these can increase the risk of corrosion
Yes. At higher concentrations, Pennine Ultraquench PQ 133 can deliver cooling performance comparable to mineral quenching oils, while offering improved safety, cleanliness and environmental benefits.
