Air compressor donated in Arkansas
air

Our Harrison, Arkansas, division recently donated an Ingersoll-Rand 185 air compressor to the North Arkansas Rusty Wheels Old Engine Club.

The air compressor will be used to start a 3-cylinder Fairbanks motor engine, which will be used to operate a 1913 Geiser sawmill. The compressor can also be used to produce electricity during the club’s shows.

That includes the club’s 44th Annual Fall Show, scheduled for Oct. 7-8 near Harrison. Visitors can experience the sights and sounds of days gone by at the free event, which features antique steam engines, tractors, and other entertainment.

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Make sure to tag us on FacebookInstagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
