Irrigation Systems for Global Agriculture

P i e r c e — E n g i n e e r i n g S u c c e s s f u l S o l u t i o n s

For over three quarters of

a century, Ag Producers

have relied on Pierce-

Built irrigation

equipment.

Today,

our full-

scale Linears

and Pivots, as well

as MicroSystems, can be

found performing around

the world. If it grows under

the sun, it’s bound to grow

better under a FieldMaster.

LINEARS

Optimizing the Earth’s resources— after all, it’s where we do our best work.

Great Performance Requires a Great Finish

Our poly lined pipe is designed as an alternative to our standard hot-dipped galvanized pipe. POLy-LInE™ combines a tough galvanized exterior with a durable polyethylene liner to eliminate problems caused by acidic, corrosive or saline water.

POLy-LInE™

Our engineers have

developed a linear

employing uniform

components. By

standardizing the

machine’s parts, we have

simplified assembly and

service, creating a more

efficient system. combine

this with the most

advanced manufacturing

methods, parts and

electronics, and the

result is the FieldMaster

Linear—unequalled

when it comes to effective

and reliable crop

irrigation, chemigation

and wastewater

management… season

after season.

“Pierce-built linears are some of the best avail-able today. Pierce stands behind my linear, and it saves labor in today’s labor market. I can’t say anything but nice things about the equipment that Pierce makes.”

At a time of diminishing

resources and

escalating material

costs, it’s important as

manufacturers,

that we

do all we

can to protect

your bottom

line. Whether

it’s improving

coatings that

reduce friction

loss and minimize

wear, controlling

irrigating dynamics

and evaporation, or

designing drivetrain

components that

coalesce with crops

and soil, Pierce

engineers have done

their field work.

LINEAR SYSTEMS

In spite of the advancements our engineers have

made developing our Center Pivots, Linears, and

Micro Irrigation Systems, they have never lost

sight of the fact that ag commerce still relies on

the effort and ingenuity of those willing to work

the soil.

Since 1932 Pierce has partnered with the

American Ag Producer. Today, the scope

of our products is worldwide, and through

the innovations in electronics and coating

options, extends beyond agriculture to include

chemigation and wastewater management.

Now, as we look to the future, our pledge

remains the same… to provide reliable, inspired

engineering that will ensure the success of our

customers.
