REDESIGN + RE-LAUNCH: THE QUENCH LOCK SYSTEM Air-powered quench plates. No vise required. Clamp it. Cool it. Move right to the next batch. Drop your blade between the plates, crank down the handwheel, turn on the air, and let it work. Two massive 17.5” x 6” x 1” aluminum plates pull heat out fast while the floating top plate helps apply even pressure across the blade, including tapered and distal-tapered profiles. Instead of trapping heat between solid plates, the Quench Lock uses internal air passages to push cooling air directly through the system while the blade remains clamped flat. Built from 1" aluminum and 1/4” steel, with an Acme-thread handwheel that makes it quick to load, clamp, and unload blades between batches. FEATURES: Built-in clamping systemNo vise needed. The integrated handwheel lets you apply pressure directly through the quench plate assembly. Floating top plateThe top plate self-adjusts to accommodate tapered and distal-tapered blades for more even contact. Active air coolingInternal air passages distribute cooling air throughout the plate assembly while the blade is clamped. Faster turnaround between bladesLeave the air running after a cycle and the plates cool down quickly, helping reduce downtime between batches. WHY WE BUILT IT Traditional quench plates work, but that usually means grabbing a vise, clamping everything together, and waiting for the plates to cool back down before the next blade. We wanted something faster. The Quench Lock keeps pressure on the blade while actively moving air through the plates. When you’re done with one blade, the airflow helps cool the plates down for the next one, cutting down on waiting between batches. We flipped the script on the redesign so the air channels are on the bottom plate (since heat rises), cooling your work and dissipating the heat even faster. No oil. No water. No cleanup. Just clamp, cool, and move on.
