About the Airtac PCF Female Thread Straight Fitting PCF1004D
The PCF1004D is an AirTAC PCF female one-touch connector: a 1/2 inch PT internal thread on one side and a push-in socket for Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing on the other. Push the tube home and the stainless spring gasket plus chuck clamp it in a moment; press the POM release ring and the tube comes free again. The D suffix on this series means the body itself is moulded in black, not just the release button.
This is the resin and brass one-touch family, so it runs at 0 to 1.0 MPa (0 to 10 kgf/cm2), tolerates vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), carries a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa and works from -20 to +70 C. The internal construction pairs a brass body and stud with a POM chuck, aluminium-alloy guide and NBR O-ring, and the 1/2 inch thread arrives with sealant already applied.

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 PCF Female Thread Straight Fitting PCF1004D Is Used
Valve manifold outlets
A 1/2 inch female thread drops straight onto the male PT outlet stud of a solenoid manifold on a bottling or packaging line, and the pre-applied thread sealant saves a taping step during build.
Compressor header take-offs
On a workshop compressed-air header serving several machines, the Dia 10 mm bore carries enough volume to feed a 40 mm bore cylinder circuit, and the push-in socket lets a technician re-route drops without a vice and spanners.
Vacuum pick-and-place cells
Rated to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), this connector suits the suction plumbing of a vacuum ejector gripper on an electronics assembly cell, where the black body helps the fitting blend into dark machine guarding.
Is the Airtac PCF Female Thread Straight Fitting PCF1004D the Right Part?
On the 1/2 inch PT female thread this prefix also offers Dia 8 and Dia 12 tube bores, so you can step down to PCF0804 to feed smaller actuators or up to PCF1204 for your biggest lines; the bore, not the fitting, sets how much air gets through. If the port is a 3/8 inch female, stay on Dia 10 and move to PCF1003 instead of forcing an adapter. A female connector is the right answer where the machine port already has a male PT stud, such as a valve manifold outlet, because a male connector would double up threads and leak.
Match the tube OD exactly: this socket grips Dia 10 mm tube only, and neither 12 mm nor a nominal 3/8 inch hose will seal in it. Keep to soft nylon or polyurethane within the -20 to +70 C window; at the cold end polyurethane stiffens, so check it still seats fully.
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 PCF Female Thread Straight Fitting PCF1004D FAQ
It is a PCF female one-touch connector joining Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/2 inch PT female thread. Working pressure is 0 to 1.0 MPa (0 to 10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure goes to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa and the working temperature range is -20 to +70 C. The body is brass with a POM chuck, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring, and the D suffix gives a black body.
No. AirTAC ships threaded one-touch parts of this size with sealant already applied to the 1/2 inch PT thread, so it seals straight into a male PT port. That pre-applied sealant is also why the female thread in this catalogue is PT rather than a parallel G thread, so check your mating port before ordering.
