KCQ Hot Quenching Oil

FOVAC® KCQ Hot Quenching Oil is a premium dual-purpose quenching oil that was developed to meet the toughest industrial requirements for long-term thermal stability and exceptional oxidation resistance.

FOVAC ® KCQ is a specially formulated quenching fluid with a high initial cool rate to induce maximum metal hardness and eliminate metal stresses and distortion. The performance benefits of this fluid include minimal oil carry-off, excellent thermal stability, and deeper, more uniform metal hardening. This oil is highly heat-resistant, requires no additive replacement, and retains its original viscosity indefinitely in normal service.

FOVAC ® KCQ is recommended for use when deep and uniform hardening is required in steels with small grain size, a wide variation in grain size, lean alloy content, and variable hardening abilities. The oil is also recommended for parts having variable sections or odd shapes.

FOVAC ® KCQ is based on carefully selected and highly refined paraffinic base oil and enhanced with special oxidation and thermal stabilizers. FOVAC ® KCQ is clean and light colored and this is of paramount importance to assuring clean and bright parts after heat treatment.
