About the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1002
The PC1002 is an AirTAC PC series one-touch male connector: a straight fitting that joins a Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/4in PT male thread. Push the tube into the chuck and the stainless spring gasket grips it for a pressure-tight seal; press the POM release ring and the tube slides straight back out. The body on the PC series is brass, with an aluminium-alloy guide, NBR O-ring and a POM release button.
This is the standard resin and brass 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 service temperature of -20 to +70 C. The 1/4in thread arrives pre-coated with sealant, so no extra tape or paste is needed on the port, and the PT taper does the sealing as you tighten.

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 PC1002 Is Used
Valve manifold outlet to a cylinder
A 1/4in PT port on a solenoid manifold steps straight out to a Dia 10 supply line, feeding a medium-bore actuator without a reducer in between.
Pick-and-place gantry drop
On a Cartesian pick-and-place unit, the Dia 10 trunk line drops into a 1/4in port at the gantry base, and the pre-applied thread sealant saves re-taping after maintenance.
Packaging machine conveyor clamps
Conveyor clamp cylinders on a carton sealer tap off the Dia 10 main at a 1/4in threaded take-off point, with push-in release making seasonal changeovers quick.
Is the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1002 the Right Part?
On the PC ladder with a 1/4in thread, the neighbouring tube sizes are Dia 8 (PC802) below and Dia 12 (PC1202) above. Stepping down to Dia 8 trims the bore and suits lighter-demand branches; stepping up to Dia 12 gives you the largest bore the 1/4in thread supports and feeds big-bore cylinders with less restriction. Every size from Dia 4 to Dia 12 is made on this thread, so the ladder is wide if you need to consolidate on one thread across a machine.
The tube OD must match exactly: a Dia 10 chuck will not seal on 1/4in (6.35 mm) tube, and forcing a smaller tube in leaks under vacuum. If you need to pass the fitting through a panel wall instead of threading into a port, the PM1002 bulkhead union is the equivalent shape and takes an M20x1 locknut on Dia 10.
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 PC1002 FAQ
It is a PC series one-touch male connector for Dia 10 mm tube with a 1/4in PT male thread. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and the temperature range is -20 to +70 C. Applicable tubing is soft nylon or polyurethane.
No. AirTAC ships this fitting with sealant already applied to the 1/4in PT thread, so it seals on the taper as installed. Just confirm the port is also PT; mating it to a parallel port will not seal reliably, and the Dia 10 tube must be cut square and pushed fully home past the chuck before pressurising.
