Application fit
The Milwaukee Valve 502 is a bronze globe valve built for 2-1/2 inch piping systems that carry water, steam or other compatible fluids. It serves installers and maintenance crews who need a rising-stem valve with a hand-wheel for throttling or full shut-off in commercial and industrial plumbing. It is not suited for compressed-air lines or for services that exceed the listed pressure and temperature ratings.
Build and connections
The bronze body with FNPT threaded ends threads directly onto standard pipe without flanges or special tools, while the rising stem gives a clear visual indication of valve position. A brass stem resists corrosion in hot water and steam service, and the hand-wheel provides mechanical advantage for smooth operation in tight mechanical rooms. The 5-3/4 inch face-to-face length and 8-5/8 inch centre-to-top height fit typical globe-valve layouts.
Deciding specification
The valve carries a 200 psi cold working pressure rating and a 125 psi steam working pressure limit, with a maximum fluid temperature of 406 °F. These three figures determine whether the 502 matches the design conditions of the system it will control.
