Bronze Rising Stem Gate Valve

The Milwaukee Valve UP148 is a 1-inch bronze gate valve with a rising stem and solid bronze wedge. It is designed for water service in residential and commercial plumbing installations. The screw-in bonnet and NPT female connection provide a standard threaded joint for pipeline assembly.

Pressure and Temperature Limits

The valve carries a maximum operating pressure of 300 psi for water service at ambient temperature. Steam service is not rated, so the valve should not be used in steam lines. The rising stem design allows visual confirmation of the gate position during operation.

Replaces Worn Bronze Gate Valves

This unit serves as a direct replacement for existing 1-inch bronze gate valves with NPT threads and rising stems. The upgrade is justified when the original valve shows seat leakage, stem corrosion, or bonnet thread damage that prevents reliable shut-off. Buyers needing flanged connections, higher pressure classes, or steam-rated construction should select a different valve type.

Questions about this item

Which connection type should I choose for my plumbing system?

This valve uses a 1-inch female NPT connection on both ends, so select matching male NPT fittings for a direct threaded joint.

What does the 300 psi rating mean when the valve is installed?

It indicates the maximum operating pressure for water service; the valve will hold up to 300 psi without leaking under normal conditions.

How does the rising stem design affect operation and maintenance?

The brass stem rises visibly when the wheel handle is turned, letting you confirm open or closed position at a glance and simplifying packing adjustments.
