Welcome
We are pioneers in the development and commercialization of unique process heating technologies that have raised worldwide performance standards and expectations.
These technologies include low-mass furnaces and kilns that radically reduce firing times and energy costs, continuous furnaces with significantly increased throughput and minimized operating expense, high temperature furnaces to 1800°C, and integrating automation and abatement systems.
Our furnaces meet pyrometric requirements of AMS 2750F, NADCAP AS7102, MILSPEC H6088, BAC 5621, Rolls Royce RPS 953 and DPS 1.700.

The Keith Dual Chamber Heat Treat Furnace features a 2250°F upper hardening chamber and a 1250°F lower recirculating chamber for tempering/drawing. The over/under configuration of the two chambers saves floor space and allows for immediate tempering or drawing after quench without waiting for the hardening furnace to cool for tempering or drawing applications. Our dual heat treating furnaces come in a large variety of chamber sizes with other optional features and upgrades to better meet your heat treating requirements.
Keith's Dual Chamber Furnaces are designed for those who want a hardening furnace and a separate furnace for tempering all within minimum floor space.
Keith's Bench Top Furnaces can be classified as one of three basic types, 'Heat Treating Furnaces' also known as hardening furnaces, 'Draw Furnaces' also known as annealing, tempering or forced convection furnaces and 'Assaying Furnaces' used for gold determination as well as jewelry making.
While the core business is centered on designing and constructing special high temperature industrial furnaces and kilns, Keith also maintains a very responsive service and spare parts business.
Our attention to detail, rapid response, technical expertise and 'can-do' attitude has earned Keith a reputation as a reliable and customer-friendly source of furnace parts and technical services. Resistance wire wound heating elements are made in house and our inventory on refractories and ceramic fiber linings is quite large
Over the years, Keith Company successfully integrated Recco Furnaces, CFF Kilns & Furnaces and KMI Refractories into the organization and we are now one company. Our customers benefit from partnering with a one-stop source for all their industrial heating product needs.

About Us
What does Keith Company do?
Keith Company engineers and builds industrial furnaces, kilns, ovens, lehrs, and thermal oxidizers (meeting AMS2750E / NADCAP requirements) that are integrated with automation and data management systems. The nature of these systems is that they serve very technical and specialized niche market applications and as a result, there are only a handful of truly US based suppliers for these systems. Keith Company is proud of its American roots and has been a US company from its inception through today. Keith Company stays current with various specialize technical knowledge to ensure its clients will have a reliable local supplier for years to come. Keith company maintains specialized knowledge in a myriad of fields including processing advanced materials, metals, specialty metals, advanced ceramics, electronic-materials, carbon and graphite, glass and more.
Keith Company specializes in supporting applications that require tight control of heating and cooling rates, temperature uniformity, process atmospheres, dew-points, process repeatability, integration of abatement systems, heat recovery systems, automation and more. Because of the variety of technologies they excel in, Keith Company finds itself making many types of furnaces to order.
