Milwaukee Valve 515Y 1" Swing Check
This 1-inch bronze Y-pattern swing check valve installs in horizontal or vertical lines with FNPT connections. The 3.6875-inch overall length fits standard piping layouts without special tools or alignment fixtures.
Installation notes
Threaded ends accept standard pipe dope or tape for a leak-free seal. The .5 psi cracking pressure opens reliably but may not prevent backflow in very low-head gravity systems. Bronze seat and body resist galling during assembly.
Capacity and limits
Rated for 31 gpm full flow at 300 psi water pressure and 150 psi steam. Operating range spans -20 to 425 degrees F, so it handles hot-water and low-pressure steam duties. Above 300 psi water or 150 psi steam the valve exceeds its design envelope.
