The AirTAC Airtac PCF Female Thread Straight Fitting PCF1202D is a genuine female connector for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The PCF1202D is an AirTAC PCF female elbow, a one-touch fitting that turns a Dia 12 mm tube through 90 degrees into a 1/4in female PT thread. Because the thread is internal, the fitting screws straight onto a male stud port or nipple with no extra adaptor between them. To make the joint, push the tube firmly into the chuck until it bottoms out; the stainless spring gasket and chuck jaws grip it against pressure and vibration, and pressing the POM release ring frees it again for rework.
This is the resin and brass one-touch profile, not the metal BP line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa, vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa and a service range of -20 to +70 C with soft nylon or polyurethane tubing. The 1/4in thread arrives with sealant already applied. The D suffix here denotes the black version, which on the PCF family covers the body, so the fitting can be colour-coded into a machine circuit at a glance.

Threads directly onto the male port stud of a compact clamp cylinder inside a tight fixture guard, taking the 12 mm supply line off at a right angle so nothing stands proud of the cylinder body.
Screws onto the 1/4in outlet stud of a solenoid valve manifold on a form-fill-seal machine, dropping the tube down to a bag-clamp actuator without an elbow nipple in the stack.
On an eight-station rotary dial table, the elbow turns the 12 mm actuator line downward from a port on the index ring, keeping the tubing clear of the rotating fixture plate above.
Dia 12 mm is the top of the tube ladder, so the only step down is Dia 10 (PCF1002), which buys you a slimmer profile and lower flow where a line is only feeding a small actuator or sensor block. On the thread side, 1/4in sits between 1/8in (PCF1201) for compact valve ports and 3/8in (PCF1203) for higher-demand drops, so check the port you are threading onto before ordering.
A female elbow is the right answer when the port itself is male-threaded and a straight fitting would stand off the machine wall or foul a guard. Match the tube OD exactly: this chuck holds 12.0 mm tube only and will not seal on 1/2in (12.7 mm) hose, a mismatch that is a common cause of slow leaks on retrofit jobs.
Quick checklist
It is an AirTAC PCF one-touch female elbow for Dia 12 mm tube with a 1/4in female PT thread. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), it holds vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa and the working temperature range is -20 to +70 C with soft nylon or polyurethane tubing. This is the standard resin and brass profile, and the D suffix makes it the black-bodied version.
No extra preparation is needed: AirTAC ships threaded one-touch parts with sealant already applied to the thread, so the PCF1202D can be wound straight onto the male port. Only M5 sizes in this catalogue use a sealing gasket instead. Hand-tighten to seat the sealant, and remember the internal thread means the mating port must be male-studded for the elbow to sit flush.
