About Georg Fischer

The Georg Fischer Valves catalogue includes a wide range of ball, butterfly, check & foot, vent and manual diaphragm valves. The brand's ball valves feature integrated stainless-steel mounting inserts and a CPVC stem with a built-in point above the seals to prevent leaks if the handle is broken off. These FDA-approved valves are used in the oil & gas industry. Georg Fischer EPDM check valves feature union bushing for maximum protection against accidental loosening of the profile seal and plastic buttress thread for stability & safety. They are ideal for applications requiring prevention against backflow of fluids into sump disposal lines, sewage lift stations and wastewater lines.

Things to Consider

Cross-Reference Alternatives

Georg Fischer's MPNs cross individual references to the equivalent Apollo model numbers. So if you are looking for competitor items that are either out of stock or obsolete, chances are Raptor Supplies has the equivalent Georg Fischer valves available. Customers can also cross-reference most Georg Fischer plumbing valves using the last 5 digits of the model numbers.

Shipping

These Georg Fischer valves handle water pressures ranging from 120 psi to 240 psi. They are small in size and require careful packaging as some products might get damaged while shipping. Hence, they are delivered by courier shipment and not air freight for minimum downtime.

Georg Fischer Competitive Advantages

Georg Fischer Aquasystems (PP-R and PP-RCT)

PP-R piping systems are lightweight systems having PP-R copolymer construction for corrosion-resistance and high mechanical strength in pressurised systems. PP-RCT systems are made of polypropylene random copolymer to ensure temperature resistance and modified crystallinity. These systems can withstand extreme operating pressures at high temperatures and provide chlorine-resistant performance. They are ideal for central heating systems, cold & hot water systems, industrial piping systems (transfer & discharge of chemicals), drinking water & treated water supply systems, solar collectors and air conditioners.
