About the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1002D-S
The PC1002D-S is the SUS304 stainless-steel version of AirTAC's PC male connector, a one-touch fitting that joins Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/4in PT male port. Push the tube home and the internal chuck grips it under the spring gasket; press the release ring and it frees the tube again. On the PC series the -S suffix means the body itself is Stainless steel 304, and AirTAC states that all parts of the assembly are copper-free - not just the outside shell.
Because the body is stainless, this is the standard resin/brass spec profile, unchanged from the brass version: 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2) working pressure, 1.5 MPa proof pressure, -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum and -20 to +70 C. The -D in the code affects only the release button on a PC part, so this unit arrives with a black button on a stainless body. Release button and chuck remain POM, the guide is aluminium alloy, the spring gasket stainless and the O-ring NBR.

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 PC1002D-S Is Used
Electroplating rinse station drop
Copper-free plumbing matters above plating and rinse tanks, where dissolved copper can contaminate the bath. A 10 mm stainless connector at the rinse-arm cylinder port keeps the air feed clean and shrugs off splashes and humidity.
Semiconductor tool clean-side air
Process tools that handle wafers and chemicals often specify copper-free wetted parts. The SUS304 body on this Dia 10 push-in fitting slots into a 1/4in port on a chamber or valve manifold without adding copper to the air path.
Food-line washdown actuator feed
On a packaging or tray-sealing machine that is hosed down daily, a Dia 10 stainless push-in connector at the gripper cylinder resists the wash chemistry that swells and pits a plain brass fitting over a season.
Is the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC1002D-S the Right Part?
On the PC ladder at a 1/4in thread, Dia 10 sits between Dia 8 (PC802) and Dia 12 (PC1202). Stepping down to 8 mm lightens the assembly and suits shorter runs to small actuators; stepping up to 12 mm lowers resistance on longer feeds to larger cylinders. A 1/4in PC connector also exists in Dia 4, 6 and 8, and this same Dia 10 tube is offered on the 3/8in thread as PC1003, so match the port before fixing the tube size.
Tube OD must match exactly: a Dia 10 fitting will not seal on 1/4in (6.35 mm) or 12 mm tube. Every male thread in this catalogue ships with sealant already applied, so it seals on the PT taper without extra tape. The dimension tables for the stainless body match the standard PC1002, so it is a direct swap where corrosion or copper pickup is the concern.
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 PC1002D-S FAQ
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2); proof pressure 1.5 MPa; vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr); temperature range -20 to +70 C. The fitting is sized for Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube with a 1/4in PT male thread. These are the same figures as the standard PC1002 - the stainless body does not change the rating.
No. On the PC series the -D changes only the release button to black; the body here is SUS304 stainless. The male thread is PT taper and arrives from AirTAC with sealant pre-applied, so it seals straight into the port - extra PTFE tape is optional and only risks debris in the air line.
