3/4-Inch Bronze Gate Valve

The Milwaukee Valve UP148 is a 3/4-inch bronze gate valve with NPT female threads designed for water service. It features a rising stem made of brass and a solid bronze wedge for positive shut-off in residential or light commercial plumbing. The screw-in bonnet and bronze seat provide a durable seal rated for 300 psi operating pressure.

Sustained Flow Performance

Under continuous water flow the solid bronze wedge and bronze seat maintain a consistent seal without the pressure drop common in partial-opening designs. The rising stem gives a clear visual indication of valve position during long operating periods. A Cv of 32 supports steady throughput for typical supply-line demands.

Thermal and Pressure Limits

Bronze construction handles normal water temperatures without degradation and the 300 psi pressure rating provides a wide safety margin for municipal supply variations. The wheel handle allows controlled operation without excessive torque that could stress the bonnet threads. No steam rating applies so the valve is limited to liquid media service.

Highlights

  • Reliable water control with 300 psi rating
  • Durable bronze body resists corrosion
  • Rising brass stem shows valve position clearly
  • 32 Cv coefficient supports strong flow
  • Female NPT connection fits standard plumbing

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 3/4 inch bronze gate valve generate when water flows through it continuously at 300 psi?

The valve body is bronze with bronze seats and a solid bronze wedge, so it adds no measurable heat to the water stream under normal operation.

What piping does the buyer need to connect the NPT female threads on this gate valve?

You need 3/4 inch male NPT pipe nipples or fittings on each side to mate with the valve's female NPT connections.

Will the rising brass stem on this 300 psi bronze gate valve interfere with older iron pipe already in the wall?

The rising stem moves vertically inside the bronze bonnet, so it clears existing pipework as long as there is clearance above the handwheel.
