Premium Fast Quench Oil for High Carbon Steels

Achieve exceptional hardness and performance in your high carbon steel projects with this professional-grade fast quench oil. Specially formulated for steels including 1075, 1084, W2, 1095 and many more, this oil delivers consistent, reliable results for knife makers and tool steel enthusiasts.

Professional Tips for Best Results

  • Preheat the oil to approximately 60°C before quenching to minimize vapor jacket formation and ensure even cooling
  • Keep your steel in constant motion during quenching - move it forward and backward through the oil in a cutting motion
  • Avoid side-to-side wiggling movements which can cause unwanted warping in your finished piece
  • Consider using an antiscale coating before heat treatment for easier cleanup and better surface finish

This premium quench oil provides the fast cooling rate essential for achieving maximum hardness in high carbon steels while maintaining excellent dimensional stability. Perfect for both professional workshops and serious hobbyists who demand consistent, predictable results in their heat treatment process.
