The AirTAC Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1001D is a genuine male connector for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The AirTAC PC1001D is a PC series one-touch male connector, AirTAC's standard straight push-in fitting for mounting a Dia 10 mm tube directly onto a 1/8 in PT male thread. You push the tube home and the stainless spring gasket and chuck grip it against the POM chuck seat; press the release ring and the tube slides straight back out. On the PC range the D suffix changes the release button to black while the body stays the standard brass straight-connector pattern, so it matches visually when buttons need to stand out on a crowded manifold.
This is the resin and brass spec profile, not the metal BP line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa, negative pressure down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa and a working temperature of -20 to +70 C. The thread arrives with sealant pre-applied, so it seals on PT threads without extra tape, and it runs on soft nylon or polyurethane tube only.

A 1/8 in PT outlet on a solenoid valve manifold is the classic home for this fitting: a 10 mm drop line carries sensible volume to downstream cylinders without the restriction of an 8 mm branch.
On carton erecting and taping machines, case clamp and flap-fold cylinders are commonly plumbed in 10 mm tube; a straight male connector at the valve or cylinder port keeps the run short and serviceable.
Fixture clamp circuits on machining centres often run 10 mm lines from a 1/8 in ported control block; the push-in connector lets a technician swap a damaged clamp line in seconds without thread sealant work.
On the 1/8 in PC thread ladder this sits between PC801 (Dia 8 tube, same thread) below and PC1201 (Dia 12 tube, same thread) above. Stepping down to Dia 8 gives you a slimmer, higher-velocity line for small actuators; stepping up to Dia 12 cuts pressure drop on longer runs. If your port is 1/4 in instead, PC1002 carries the same Dia 10 tube on a bigger thread. Note that 1/8 in is the smallest thread AirTAC offers on Dia 10 in this series - the M5 option stops at Dia 6. Tube OD must match exactly: a Dia 10 chuck will not seal on 3/8 in or 1/2 in tube, whatever the thread size.
Quick checklist
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2); negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr); proof pressure 1.5 MPa; working temperature -20 to +70 C. It joins Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/8 in PT male thread, with a black POM release button on the standard PC brass body.
No - the PC is a straight thread-to-tube connector, not a panel-mount part. For a Dia 10 tube through a panel, use the PM bulkhead connector, which carries an M20x1 locknut thread at this tube size; the PC1001D then continues the line on the downstream side.
