Mineral Accelerated Quenching Oil
Castrol Iloquench 32 is an accelerated quenching oil for general purpose work,
based on mineral oil of a low viscosity.
Applications:
Castrol Iloquench 32 is a general purpose accelerated quenching oil ideal for
quenching a wide range of steels, including lean alloy types. Quenching direct from
cyanide salt baths is possible with this product. Castrol Iloquench 32 is used
extensively in the heat treatment of bolts and nuts in En 5 and En 8, for ball bearings
Em 31, high speed tool steel, bearings in A151-400C, various components for all
major industries in EN1a and EN32 after carbo-nitriding. Operating temperatures are
between 20°C and 80°C.
BENEFITS
ß Low viscosity
Economical to use due to low drag-out. Ease of circulation maintains quenching
consistency.
ß Low percentage of volatile fractions
High flash point reduces fire risk. Reduced losses due to evaporation. Improved
working conditions due to low fuming. Long product life.
ß Good oxidation resistance
Reduced sludge and acid build-up, extends useful life.
ß High speed quench
Permits the use of leaner and therefore cheaper steels.
