Milwaukee Valve

Milwaukee Valve UP148 1/4 Gate Valve Bronze NPT

SKU CH-8K28-1MN30

Bronze gate valve with rising stem and wheel handle, rated for 300 psi water service and NPT connection

  • Reliable water control with 300 psi operating pressure
  • Corrosion-resistant bronze body and trim for long service life
  • Precise flow regulation via rising stem and solid wedge design
  • Standard 1/4 inch NPT female connection for easy installation
  • Efficient flow capacity with 5.6 Cv coefficient

1/4 Inch Bronze Gate Valve

The Milwaukee Valve UP148 is a quarter-inch bronze gate valve with NPT female threads. It is intended for water service and rated for a maximum operating pressure of 300 psi. The solid bronze wedge and bronze seat provide a tight shut-off for residential or light commercial plumbing lines.

Installation Notes

The valve uses standard NPT threads, so it threads directly onto matching pipe without special tools beyond a wrench. Use appropriate thread sealant on the male pipe threads to prevent leaks. The rising stem design requires enough vertical clearance above the valve for the stem to extend fully when opened.

Pre-Order Checks

Verify that your piping system uses 1/4 inch NPT connections and that the operating pressure does not exceed 300 psi. Confirm the media is compatible with bronze, brass and bronze trim materials. Ensure there is sufficient space above the installed valve for the rising stem and wheel handle to operate without obstruction.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the Milwaukee Valve UP148 gate valve is operating correctly after installation?

Check that the wheel handle turns smoothly to raise and lower the solid bronze wedge, and confirm no leakage at the NPT connection when the system reaches its 300 psi operating pressure limit.

What components are included with the UP148 and what additional parts are required for installation?

The valve body, rising brass stem, solid bronze wedge, wheel handle and screw-in bronze bonnet are supplied; you must purchase compatible NPT pipe fittings, thread sealant and any required piping separately.

Which version of the UP148 should I select for a water line needing a 5.6 Cv flow coefficient?

This model provides a 5.6 Cv with a 1/4 inch nominal size, bronze body and NPT female connection, making it the correct choice for that flow requirement.
