About the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1001
The AirTAC PC1001 is a PC series one-touch male connector, the straight threaded fitting in AirTAC's resin one-touch range. It joins Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/8" PT male thread. The body on the PC series is brass - a point worth knowing because most other prefixes in this catalogue use PBT for the threaded parts - with a POM release button, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring. The 1/8" PT thread arrives with sealant already applied, so it goes straight onto the port.
Installation is the standard one-touch action: push the tube fully home and the stainless chuck grips it for a pressure-tight hold; press the release ring and the tube comes free for rework. This is the resin spec profile, not the metal BPC line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa and a temperature window of -20 to +70 C. The standard colour is grey; on PC fittings the D suffix changes only the release button, not the body.

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 PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1001 Is Used
Pneumatic press cylinder feed
A mid-bore cylinder on a bench pneumatic press usually takes a 1/8" PT port. The PC1001 pushes Dia 10 mm supply line straight in, giving the flow area the downstroke needs without stepping sizes at the port.
Vacuum ejector supply line
Single-stage vacuum generators on pick-and-place heads commonly use Dia 10 mm supply tube. This connector holds the -750 mmHg vacuum side and threads into the ejector's 1/8" PT air inlet.
Conveyor gate actuator drop
Sorting and diverting gates on packaging conveyors run short air cylinders with 1/8" PT ports. A straight connector keeps the Dia 10 mm drop line aligned and easy to release when a gate cylinder is swapped.
Is the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1001 the Right Part?
Dia 10 sits one step from the top of the PC ladder on a 1/8" thread. Step down to PC801 for Dia 8 mm tube when the actuator or airline has a smaller bore, or up to PC1201 for Dia 12 mm where you want more area and lower velocity in a short, high-demand run. At Dia 10 the fitting feeds mid-size cylinders and air tools without the stiffness penalty of 12 mm tube in tight bends. Before ordering, check the tube, not the thread: this fitting grips Dia 10 mm OD only, so 3/8" inch tube (9.5 mm) will not seal in it. If the port is a 1/4" PT female, you need PC1011 instead; keep the thread matched to the port size rather than reducing with adaptors that add leak paths.
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 PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1001 FAQ
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, operating temperature -20 to +70 C. The fitting takes Dia 10 mm OD soft nylon or polyurethane tube on one side and a 1/8" PT male thread on the other. Applicable media temperature is limited by the tubing choice as well as the fitting.
Yes, it is correct. On the PC series the 1/8" thread supports tube sizes from Dia 4 up to Dia 12 mm, so Dia 10 on a 1/8" port is a standard combination. The tube bore, not the thread, sets flow capacity. If you would rather match thread size to the bore, the 1/4" version is PC1011 - same Dia 10 mm grip, larger port thread - and it is the usual pick on mid-size valve manifolds.
