WHAT IS OIL QUENCHING?

Oil quenching metals

The oil quenching process is used in the heat treatment of metals. During this process, a piece of metal is rapidly cooled to change its individual properties. Examples of common properties include toughness, strength, durability, and hardness. If you rapidly cool the metal, you reduce the amount of time it spends at high temperatures, which can prevent defects from occurring.
