IntensiQuench® Process Proven Benefits:

• Increases the depth of hardness.
• Eliminates surface cracking.
• Minimizes part distortion.
• Achieves the same or better metallurgical properties while using lower alloy, less costly steel.
• Provides an optimum combination of high surface compressive stress; high-strength, wear-resistant quenched layer; and relatively soft but properly strengthened core resulting in longer part life.
• Uses less costly, environmentally friendly quenchant (usually plain water), instead of expensive, hazardous oil.
• Shortens the duration, or fully eliminates, the carburizing cycle.
• Achieves the greater productivity of the quenching equipment due to much faster cooling rate.
