Half-inch bronze globe valve

The Milwaukee Valve UP1502 is a 1/2-inch bronze globe valve with sweat connections rated for 300 psi fluid pressure. It suits plumbers and maintenance crews needing reliable shut-off or throttling on residential or light-commercial water lines. The rising-stem design and hand-wheel handle give clear visual indication of valve position during operation. Buyers needing flanged or threaded ends should select a different model.

Sustained pressure and temperature handling

The valve body is rated for continuous fluid pressure up to 300 psi and fluid temperatures up to 200 degrees F. Bronze construction resists corrosion from treated water, maintaining seal integrity over long service intervals. The screw-in bonnet secures the stem packing under constant thermal cycling without loosening. Steam service is not rated, so the valve must not be used on steam lines.

Thermal limits and installation profile

Maximum fluid temperature of 200 degrees F defines the thermal envelope for normal use. Bronze stem and body expand at similar rates, preserving packing seal during temperature swings. The sweat-by-sweat connections require soldering, eliminating threaded joint leak paths once installed. Overall length of 2 7/16 inches and handle height of 3 3/4 inches determine the space needed in the piping layout.

Questions about this item

How hot can the fluid get before the 1/2" bronze globe valve reaches its temperature limit?

The valve handles fluid temperatures up to 200 degrees F, so it stays within spec for typical hot-water circuits.

What pipe preparation and tools are needed to install the sweat connections on this valve?

You need 1/2" copper tubing, flux, lead-free solder and a propane or MAPP torch to make the sweat joints.

Will the 300 psi rated bronze valve thread into existing iron pipe fittings without adapters?

No, the ends are sweat only, so you must solder copper adapters or use a dielectric union to join iron pipe.
