Polymer & Water Quenching Job Work in Ludhiana, Punjab

Controlled cooling solutions for induction heat treatment, case hardening, and surface hardening processes.

What Is the Quenching Process?

Quenching is a crucial step in the induction heat treatment process, where a heated steel component is rapidly cooled to achieve desired hardness and strength. Thakur Induction uses controlled polymer and water-based quenching systems in Ludhiana to ensure consistent metallurgical results and minimal distortion — essential for precision hardening jobs.

Precision Polymer Quenching for Induction Hardening

Polymer quenching involves cooling metal components using water mixed with a polymer solution. The polymer concentration determines the cooling rate, making it a highly controlled and repeatable process.

  • Controlled cooling rate adjustment
  • Reduced distortion vs. water quenching
  • Suitable for high-precision steel parts
  • Consistent metallurgical properties

Water Quenching Process in Punjab

For components requiring rapid and deep hardness, Thakur Induction also provides water quenching job work. Water quenching ensures high surface hardness for heavy-duty parts made from EN8, EN19, EN24, 4140, and 4340 steels commonly used across Punjab’s automotive and machinery industries.

  • Fast cooling for deeper case hardness
  • Cost-effective for mass production
  • Ideal for robust, thick-walled parts
  • Compatible with all hardening processes

Consistent Hardness, Zero Distortion, Longer Life

The quenching stage directly influences the performance and durability of hardened parts. Using controlled quenching systems, Thakur Induction ensures:

Stable Case Depth

Ensures uniform hardness and predictable results across every component.

No Cracking or Defects
