Quenching

Quenching can be used in heat treating for a number of reasons, but the main reason here is in transforming austenite into martensite. It is the hardening portion of the “harden and temper” process.

HTC Steel offers a variety of high-quality heat treating services in air, water & oil quenching. This process facilitates hardening of steel by controlling heat transfer and wettings the metal to minimize undesirable formations.
