Valve Size and Application

The Milwaukee Valve UPBA-481B is a manual two-way ball valve with a 1/2 inch nominal size. It is designed for water service in residential or commercial plumbing systems. The brass body and chrome-plated brass ball provide corrosion resistance for potable water lines. Installers select this valve for reliable on-off control in standard pressure applications.

Press Connection and System Fit

The valve uses a press-end connection that requires a compatible press tool and jaw set for installation. This method eliminates the need for soldering flux, open flame or threaded adapters on copper tubing. The two-piece straight body fits inline without altering pipe alignment. The full port design maintains unrestricted flow through the valve bore.

Handle Operation and Pressure Rating

A non-locking lever handle provides quick quarter-turn actuation for shut-off or isolation tasks. The valve is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi and a vacuum service rating of 29.92 in Hg. It carries no 3-A sanitary standard compliance and is not rated for steam or combustible gas service. The simple mechanical design requires no external power or control wiring.
