Its industry was agricultural implements (currently air compressors and related equipment) and its headquarters were in Harrison, Ohio (1839-1910), West Harrison, Indiana (1910-1965) and back to Harrison, Ohio (1965-present).In 1920, the company merged with the Ohio Pattern Works & Foundry Company, forming the Campbell-Hausfeld Company.
