The AirTAC Airtac PC Threaded Straight Connector PC6M5D-M 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 PC6M5D-M is AirTAC's mini-series PC male connector in the black-button variant: it terminates a Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube onto an M5x0.8 male thread. The mini build trims the body down for M3 and M5 port work, so it sits where a full-size connector would crowd neighbouring ports. The D suffix on the PC series changes the release button colour only - the body and stud are unchanged.
Push the tube in and the stainless spring gasket and POM chuck clamp it against the brass body; press the black release ring to let it go. The M5x0.8 stud seals with a factory-fitted sealing gasket rather than thread sealant, so no tape or paste is needed on the port. This resin/brass profile is rated 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2) working pressure, 1.5 MPa proof, -750 mmHg vacuum and -20 to +70 C.

Miniature parallel grippers and mini cylinders on desktop pick-and-place units often carry M5 ports spaced a few millimetres apart; the shortened mini body threads in without fouling the adjacent fitting.
Analyser and dosing instruments built on M5-port manifold blocks take 6 mm polyurethane lines neatly through this connector, with the gasket seal keeping the brass stud chemical-friendly to the block.
Small air jets and nozzle clean-offs on electronics assembly benches run from M5 valve outlets; the black release button makes quick line swaps during nozzle or jet maintenance.
On the PC mini ladder at M5 there are only two tube sizes: Dia 4 and Dia 6. This SKU is the larger of the two, so the step down is PC4M5-M for a slimmer 4 mm line feeding lighter actuator loads; there is no Dia 8 option at M5. If you need more bore than 6 mm, move up the thread ladder instead - PC6-01M keeps the 6 mm tube on a 1/8 PT port, and 1/8 accepts tube from Dia 4 to Dia 12.
Match the thread carefully: M5x0.8 is a metric fine port common on compact valves and small cylinders, and it must be a genuine M5 port - it will not mate with 1/8 PT. And the tube must match exactly: a Dia 6 chuck will not grip 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) hose.
Quick checklist
It is an AirTAC mini-series one-touch male connector for Dia 6 mm tube on an M5x0.8 male thread (sealed by a gasket). Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, temperature -20 to +70 C. Applicable tubing is soft nylon or polyurethane; body materials are POM chuck and button, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket, NBR O-ring, brass body and stud.
No. AirTAP supplies the larger PT-threaded studs with pre-applied sealant, but every M5 size in this catalogue seals with a dedicated sealing gasket instead, so the PC6M5D-M threads straight into an M5x0.8 port as delivered. Just confirm the port really is metric M5 - it will not seal against a 1/8 PT hole.
