What do we do at Roberts & Son Black Oxide Specialist, you ask?

Our goal at Roberts & Son is to attain the highest level of quality and customer service every day knowing that we are only as good as our last job.

The Black Oxide process is a dip process in which the steel or iron parts are chemically converted to magnetite (FE3O4) a protective iron oxide. Since this is a conversion process, there is no change in dimensions, hardness or surface properties. The final finish depends on the original finish – a polished surface retains its gloss, and a dull surface retains its matte finish.

Roberts & Son Black Oxide Specialist Inc. was established in 1988 by Timothy Roberts, with himself as the only employee. In 1992, Matthew Roberts, Tim’s younger brother, was hired and is now the plant manager. Tim’s son, Nicholas Roberts has been involved in the business since age 14 and now is a full time Firefighter/Paramedic, but still enjoys getting his hands dirty at the shop on needed occasions.
