About the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1002-S
The PC1002-S is AirTAC's PC male connector in the SUS304 stainless-steel variant, joining Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/4in PT male thread. AirTAC states that on the PC straight-connector family the -S suffix makes the body itself stainless steel 304 and the whole part copper-free, while the release button and chuck stay POM and the guide stays aluminium alloy. This is the resin spec profile: 0-1.0 MPa working pressure and -20 to +70 C, exactly the same ratings as the grey standard version.
Installation is the usual one-touch action. Push the Dia 10 tube squarely into the chuck until it bottoms out and the stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring seal around it; press the release ring toward the body to free the tube again. The 1/4in thread arrives with sealant already applied, so it goes straight into a PT port without extra tape on most assemblies.

POM release button and chuck, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket, NBR O-ring; body brass or PBT depending on the part. Stainless (-S): SUS304 in place of brass - a solid SUS304 body on the PC and POC straight connectors, and a PBT body with a SUS304 stud on the elbow, tee and branch shapes. Working pressure, proof pressure and temperature are unchanged from the standard version. AirTAC publishes flow as a characteristic curve rather than a single figure, so no L/min value is listed.

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-S Is Used
Plating-line actuator feed
Copper-free construction matters where stray copper ions catalyse bath chemistry; the SUS304 body on the PC1002-S sits happily beside chromic and acid wash stations feeding Dia 10 lines to lift cylinders.
Food wash-down conveyor gate
A stainless body shrugs off daily caustic hose-down on packaging conveyors, driving a Dia 10 tube to a pneumatic gate cylinder from a 1/4in PT manifold port.
Marine deck machinery
Salt-laden air pits brass bodies quickly; the PC1002-S feeds Dia 10 tubing to hatch or winch actuators on deck equipment where the 1/4in PT stud threads into a steel header.
Is the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1002-S the Right Part?
On the PC ladder at 1/4in PT this Dia 10 size sits between PC0802 below and PC1202 above. Stepping down to Dia 8 buys compactness and suits lighter actuators; stepping up to Dia 12 lowers restriction on longer runs or bigger bore cylinders. Note the PC interface table supports 1/4in across the full 4 to 12 mm range, so you can consolidate on one thread size and vary only the tube.
Match the tube OD exactly: a Dia 10 chuck will not grip 3/8in (10 mm nominal imperial) or any other close-but-wrong tube, and forcing it destroys the gasket seat. If you need to swivel during alignment rather than fix rigidly, the PH universal elbow is the shape to reach for instead of this straight body.
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-S FAQ
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, operating temperature -20 to +70 C. It joins Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/4in PT male thread. The -S version carries identical ratings to the standard PC1002; only the body material changes to SUS304, and AirTAC states the part is copper-free.
Yes. AirTAC's dimension tables match, so the PC1002-S is a direct swap wherever a standard PC1002 is used. The SUS304 applies to the fitting body; the release button and chuck remain POM and the guide remains aluminium alloy, so there is no re-rating and no dimensional change to plan for.
