SME CM98-207

The purpose of this paper is to compare the metallurgical effects of high pressure quenching in a vacuum furnace, as opposed to oil quenching various oil hardening grades of materials. There is relatively little or no available information on the metallurgical properties that can be achieved when quenched in a high pressure gas environment. Therefore, another purpose of this paper is to provide useful informatioin for the new commercial application of high pressure gas quenching of typical liquid hardening materials in a vacuum furnace.
