Come see us!

If you’re attending the Tennessee Gas Association conference next week, be sure to visit Volunteer Industrial Supply at Booth 11.

They’ll be on hand to talk through the latest in pressure measurement and calibration, with Ralston products available for live demos.

Thanks for the support! We look forward to the future!

Snapped this quick photo with Volunteer Industrial Supply this week.

That cleared land in the background is the site of their new facility and a sign of the strong momentum they’ve been building over the years.

Big things are in motion, and we’re glad to be part of the journey.

This weekend was a busy one for our team.

Late Friday, one of our major data center customers experienced an unexpected outage and urgently needed 14” expansion joints. We quickly mobilized—coordinating an out of state courier, with materials delivered late night Friday to keep things moving.

By Saturday morning, the customer had what they needed and the install had began.

A big thank you to our partner Kadant Unaflex for stepping up. This is what strong partnerships and true customer commitment look like.

A recent project reminded us why relationships matter in our industry.

A customer needed a custom soak tank for cooling tower panel maintenance. Since it wasn’t a standard product, we partnered with one of our OEM fabricators—who is also a key customer—to design and build the right solution.

Together, we delivered a tank tailored specifically to their application.

The photos below show the progression—from our initial concept drawing to the finished tank being delivered.

In industrial distribution, success isn’t just about products—it is about partnerships, collaboration, and solving customer challenges.

🔧 Recently Completed: Verification & Refurbish Service ✅

We just wrapped up a full pressure verification and refurbish project for one of our newest instrumentation clients. This included:
✔️ Annual calibration of pressure gauges
✔️ Rebuild of hand pumps
✔️ General cleaning of kit components

We partnered with our trusted brands, AMETEK STC and Ralston Instruments, LLC, to ensure all equipment was calibrated to spec and ready for redeployment.

Keeping equipment accurate and well-maintained isn’t just good practice — it’s essential.

📅 Need annual calibration and service? We’ve got you covered.

🔧 Custom Fabrication Delivered — Fast.

We recently completed a set of custom compression “Swage style” wye weldments for a nuclear energy client, all fabricated from traceable stainless steel.

The client approached us with a unique challenge — and we delivered a precise, high-quality solution in under two weeks.

This project reflects what we do best: solving complex fabrication needs with speed, precision, and reliability.

Holly did a great job today on-site with one of our valued customers, successfully establishing two new inventories.

This is just one of the many personalized services we provide at Volunteer Industrial Supply — delivering hands-on support to help our partners stay organized and efficient.

Great work, Holly! 👏

🌟 Team Spotlight: Gene Kobus 🌟

Last week, Gene spent time in West Tennessee meeting with customers across Power Generation, Gas Municipality, Chemical Production, and Gas Transport industries.

One of the best parts of these visits? Seeing the equipment our customers rely on every day—and watching the “lightbulb moment” when they discover how new Ralston Instruments, LLC and AMETEK STC can simplify their work. 💡

Strong relationships + innovative tools = making our customers’ jobs easier and more efficient. That’s what it’s all about. 👏
