Do you know the importance of selecting the right cleaner to protect your parts and equipment?

17% of rejects occur because of poor pre-treating and inadequate metal cleaning. Without the proper cleaning process in place, residual contaminates "burn" into the surface during heat treating, causing damage to your parts and furnace. Efficient cleaning is not only about achieving the required technical cleanliness at a minimum cost, it also needs to ensure safety, sustainability, and regulatory compliance. We’ll discuss reducing costs and chemical consumption by using not only the right quench oils for your process, but also the right cleaner and corrosion inhibitor.

Agenda:

  • Pre-Clean and post-cleaning for heat treat.
  • Water/solvent based rust inhibitors.
  • EPA Regulations: Why aqueous over solvent?
