In the aerospace industry, where metallurgical integrity and component reliability are non-negotiable, Fluid Dynamics provides the world-class chemistry and technical oversight required to meet the most stringent specifications. As the select sales and service provider for DOW® UCON® quenchants in North America, we deliver solutions that have become the industry benchmark for performance.
Official OEM Approvals
Our UCON® product line is recognized and approved by the world’s leading aerospace manufacturers for its exceptional consistency and quality:
- Boeing
- Airbus
- Pratt & Whitney
Precision Quenching with UCON® Technology
Aerospace components require absolute thermal control to maintain structural integrity. Our advanced polymer technologies utilize inverse solubility to deliver highly precise quenching rates that traditional oil and water solutions cannot match.
- Eliminate Defects: Perfect your heat-treatment process while minimizing cracks, distortion, and product defects across a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous aerospace materials.
- Non-Nitrite Formulations: We provide both standard and Non-Nitrite (NN) formulations—including UCON® Quenchants A, RL, and E—to meet specific environmental and safety requirements.
- Fire Safety: Formulated with water, our polymer quenchants eliminate fire hazards, ensuring a safer facility for your high-value production lines.
High-Efficiency Machining & Protection
Beyond quenching, we support the aerospace manufacturing workflow with high-performance fluids designed for precision and preservation:
- NuSOL® High-Efficiency Fluids: Achieve sub-micron precision in your machining centers. NuSOL® features an average particle size under one micron, ensuring rapid tool cooling and maximum surface wetting for complex aerospace geometries.
- Metal Protection & VCI: Protect finished components during storage or transit with our Vapor Phase Inhibitors (VCI) and long-term indoor/outdoor preservatives, engineered to withstand diverse environmental challenges.
Expert Technical and Field Support
We do more than just supply products; we partner with your facility to ensure every batch meets aerospace standards.
- Analytical Services: Our experts provide comprehensive routine bath analysis, concentration monitoring, and cooling curve testing to ensure optimal in-process performance and extended system life.
- On-Site Guidance: Leverage decades of industry knowledge for help with product selection, establishing operating parameters, and troubleshooting directly on the shop floor.
