About the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC601
The AirTAC PC601 is a PC series one-touch male connector that joins Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/8in PT male thread. Push the tube home and the stainless spring gasket and chuck grip it against the NBR O-ring; press the POM release ring and the tube slides back out. The 1/8in thread arrives from the factory with sealant already applied, so the stud can be screwed straight into the port without extra tape or paste.
Unlike the other threaded one-touch prefixes, which use PBT threaded sections, the PC body is solid brass, giving a heavier, more vibration-tolerant straight connector for the same 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 temperature window. Internals are a POM release button and chuck, an aluminium-alloy guide and a stainless spring gasket. Grey is standard; ordering PC601D changes only the release button colour, 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 PC601 Is Used
Pick-and-place cylinder port
A straight 6mm air line leaving the rear port of a compact double-acting cylinder on a pick-and-place arm, where the port faces away from the guard and a rigid brass body resists line whip better than a plastic-bodied fitting.
FRL outlet to a packaging gripper
Taken off the regulated outlet of an FRL unit on a small packaging machine, feeding a 6mm polyurethane run to a light-duty gripper working at 0.4-0.5 MPa, comfortably inside the 0-1.0 MPa rating.
Manifold valve outlet drop
Screwed into the 1/8in outlet of a solenoid valve manifold on a printing or labelling machine, the pre-applied thread sealant speeds up valve swaps during changeover without fussy sealing tape work.
Is the Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC601 the Right Part?
Both tube neighbours of Dia 6 exist on the PC 1/8in row: PC401 (Dia 4) for thin lines to small sensors and PC801 (Dia 8) where you want a noticeably freer flow path to a larger bore, since capacity follows the tube bore rather than any published flow figure. On the thread side, PC6-M5 (M5x0.8, gasket sealed) steps down for compact valve ports and PC602 (1/4in) steps up for standard cylinder and FRL ports. Dia 6 tube only - the collet will not reliably hold a 1/4in (6.35 mm) imperial tube, so match the OD exactly.
If the tube needs to turn instead of running straight off the port, PL601 is the male elbow equivalent on the same thread.
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 PC601 FAQ
The PC601 is a PC series one-touch male connector with a Dia 6 mm tube connection and a 1/8in PT male thread. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa, negative pressure is -750 mmHg (10 Torr), and the working temperature range is -20 to +70 C. It is intended for soft nylon or polyurethane tubing, with a brass body, POM release button and chuck, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring.
No. Every threaded part in this catalogue is supplied with sealant already applied to the thread, so the 1/8in PT stud can be wound into the port as delivered. Note that the thread standard across this catalogue is PT; there is no separate G (BSPP) or NPT ordering code for the PC601, and reapplying heavy tape on top of the factory sealant can spread the thread and upset the seal.
