About the Airtac PYW Y-Type Reducing Tee Fitting PYW12-10
The AirTAC PYW12-10 is a different diameter union Y from the resin one-touch range. It is a tube-to-tube part with no thread at all: the single Dia 12 mm leg takes the larger supply line, and the two Dia 10 mm legs split that flow into two smaller branches at a Y angle. Push each tube home and the internal chuck grips it; press the release ring and the tube frees off again.
This is the standard resin spec, not the metal BP line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and a working temperature of -20 to +70 C. It also holds vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), so it can serve suction circuits, not just pressure. Body POM chuck, stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring come standard in grey; the D suffix changes the body to black.

Fitting & Sealing Notes
- check Cut the tube square and clean before pushing it home, or the seal will leak.
- check Push until it stops, then pull back to check the chuck has gripped.
- check To release, press the collet ring fully in and pull the tube out.
- check Threaded parts arrive with sealant on the thread; M5 sizes use a sealing gasket.
- check Match the tube OD exactly - a 6 mm fitting will not hold 1/4" tube.
Where the Airtac PYW Y-Type Reducing Tee Fitting PYW12-10 Is Used
Indexing table feed on a packaging machine
A 12 mm drop from the FRL regulator steps through the PYW12-10 into two 10 mm legs feeding the index cylinder and its end-of-stroke sensor line, all push-in with no thread sealing needed.
Twin blowoff on a bottling line
One 12 mm branch trunk is Y-split into a pair of 10 mm runs driving two reject-blowoff nozzles above the conveyor, balancing flow without a second tee and reducer.
Dual-cup vacuum pick head
On a semiconductor tray-handling pick head, the PYW12-10 carries a -750 mmHg vacuum from a 12 mm line and feeds two 10 mm suction cup stems from one connection.
Is the Airtac PYW Y-Type Reducing Tee Fitting PYW12-10 the Right Part?
Step down from this part and you reach PYW10-8, which drops Dia 10 to Dia 8 - a smaller, cheaper jump that suits lighter sub-branches. Step up and there is nothing: Dia 12 to Dia 10 is the largest different-diameter pair in the PYW ladder, so if you need to feed 12 mm legs you are already at the top of the range. If your two legs are the same size as the trunk, skip the reducer and use the equal-diameter PY union Y instead. Remember the grip is exact: the Dia 10 end will not hold 3/8 in or any other near-miss tubing, only true Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Tube outside diameter matches exactly
- ✓ Thread size and standard match the port
- ✓ Working pressure within 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2)
- ✓ Temperature within -20 to +70 °C
Airtac PYW Y-Type Reducing Tee Fitting PYW12-10 FAQ
It joins Dia 12 mm tube to Dia 10 mm tube in a Y shape, with no threaded port. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), and working temperature -20 to +70 C. It is rated for soft nylon or polyurethane tube only, and suits vacuum as well as pressure circuits.
The chuck grips one exact outside diameter, so the 10 mm leg accepts only true 10 mm OD soft nylon or polyurethane tube - a worn, scored or slightly oversized tube will leak past the NBR O-ring even though it feels close. Cut the tube square, deburr it, and push it in until it bottoms; if the bore is scratched or oval, replace the tube rather than forcing a seal.
