Bronze gate valve with rising stem and wheel handle

Milwaukee Valve

Milwaukee Valve UP148 1/2 Gate Valve Bronze

SKU CH-9EYM-XYW6D

A 1/2-inch bronze gate valve rated for 300 psi water service with a rising brass stem and solid bronze wedge

  • Bronze body resists corrosion for long service life
  • Rising brass stem shows valve position at a glance
  • 300 psi rating handles high-pressure water lines
  • 6 Cv delivers strong flow with minimal restriction
  • Screw-in bronze bonnet simplifies maintenance access

Application and fit

The Milwaukee Valve UP148 is a bronze gate valve sized at 1/2 inch for water supply lines. It serves plumbers and maintenance crews who need a positive shut-off device with a rising stem and wheel handle.

Pressure and flow

The valve carries a 300 psi maximum operating pressure and a Cv of 17.6, allowing full flow with minimal restriction when the solid bronze wedge is fully raised. The screw-in bronze bonnet and bronze seat provide a metal-to-metal seal suited to water service.

Connection detail

The inlet and outlet both use 1/2 inch female NPT threads, so the valve threads directly onto male pipe ends without adapters. Buyers who need a different thread type or a flanged connection must select another model.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Milwaukee Valve UP148 gate valve and what step is often missed?

Thread the 1/2 inch NPT female connections onto the pipe using sealant, then tighten the bronze bonnet securely; the step often missed is fully seating the solid bronze wedge before pressurising the line.

What maintenance or replacement will the Milwaukee Valve UP148 gate valve need later?

Inspect the rising brass stem and bronze seat for wear or mineral build-up; replace the stem packing or the solid bronze wedge if leakage appears at the bonnet or across the seat.

What limit appears first on the Milwaukee Valve UP148 gate valve under sustained use?

The 300 psi maximum operating pressure is the primary limit; exceeding it risks damaging the bronze body, bonnet, or the bronze-to-bronze sealing surfaces.
