Brass Sweat Ball Valve
The Milwaukee Valve BA-485BMS is a manual two-way ball valve built for 3/4 inch sweat connections. Its brass body and chrome-plated brass ball handle water and combustible gases in residential or light commercial plumbing systems. A full-port design maintains flow capacity through the valve bore. The two-piece construction allows straightforward installation on copper tubing.
For Water And Gas Lines
Plumbers and facility technicians needing a 600 psi rated shut-off for water or combustible gas will find this valve suitable. The non-locking handle provides simple quarter-turn operation without a padlock provision. Installers requiring a 3-A sanitary rating, a steam pressure rating, or a locking handle should select a different model. Vacuum service is rated to 29.92 in Hg for applicable systems.
600 PSI Operating Pressure
The maximum operating pressure of 600 psi is the primary figure that determines whether this valve matches the system design. Verify that the service pressure stays within this limit before specifying the part. The valve carries no steam or combustible gas pressure rating, so those services must be evaluated separately. Body material is brass with a straight body style.

Questions about this item
What pipe size must I already have for the 3/4 in sweat ends to fit?
You need 3/4 in nominal copper tubing so the sweat connections on this two-piece brass valve can be soldered directly.
Will the full-port chrome-plated brass ball restrict flow if I keep my existing 3/4 in supply lines?
The full-port design matches the 3/4 in bore of standard tubing, so flow stays unrestricted alongside your current lines.
How can I verify the valve holds its 600 psi rating after I solder it in?
Pressurize the system to working pressure and check the joint and stem for leaks; a tight seal at 600 psi confirms proper assembly.
