1 in Brass Ball Valve for Water and Gas

The Milwaukee Valve BA-485BMS is a manual two-way ball valve built from brass with a chrome-plated brass ball. It handles water and combustible gases in residential and light-commercial plumbing systems. The full-port design keeps flow unrestricted when the valve is open. A straight, two-piece body simplifies installation on 1 in copper tubing.

Sweat Connection Fits Standard Copper Pipe

The sweat ends join directly to 1 in copper pipe without threaded adapters, saving space in tight wall cavities. A non-locking handle provides quick quarter-turn shut-off for maintenance or emergency isolation. Brass construction resists corrosion from water supplies, while the 600 psi pressure rating covers typical municipal and well-pump pressures. Vacuum service to 29.92 in Hg allows use on suction lines.

Replaces Gate Valves and Older Ball Valves

This valve upgrades from multi-turn gate valves that seize over time or from reduced-port ball valves that restrict flow. The full-port bore matches the pipe inner diameter, so pressure drop stays minimal. The two-piece body allows easier cleaning than one-piece designs. It is not suited for steam lines, high-pressure gas service above the rated limits, or applications requiring a locking handle for safety lock-out.
