Quick Temper 275 is a eutectic mixture of nitrate and nitrite salts formulated for a specific
range of operating temperatures. It is basically used as a molten heat transfer or quenching
bath salt. More rapid quenching of the parts can be obtained by agitation of the salt bath or
by additions of small amounts of water. Salt bath furnaces are available which are equipped
to add water in the required quantities at periodic intervals.
