About the Airtac PCF Female Thread Straight Fitting PCF6M5D
The AirTAC PCF6M5D is a one-touch female connector: it joins Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a port with an M5x0.8 internal thread. Push the tube home and the stainless chuck grips it under the spring gasket; press the POM release ring and the tube frees. The female thread drops over an existing male stud on the component, so no re-tapping of the port is needed.
This is the resin/brass one-touch profile: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum down to -750 mmHg, proof pressure 1.5 MPa and a temperature window of -20 to +70 C. Grey is the standard colour and the D suffix here specifies the black version. A detail worth knowing on any M5 fitting: the M5 sizes in this catalogue seal with a sealing gasket on the face rather than the pre-applied thread sealant used on larger threads, so the fitting screws straight onto a plain stud without sealant prep.

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 PCF6M5D Is Used
Pick-and-place gripper valves
Compact gripper valves often carry an M5 stud. The female thread screws straight on and a 6 mm polyurethane run reaches the mini cylinder in the gripper, all inside tight robot dress-pack space.
Analytical instrument air lines
In a lab analyzer or diagnostic instrument, 6 mm soft nylon from a small diaphragm pump lands on M5-port solenoids. The gasket-sealed M5 face keeps the plumbing clean without thread compound near samples.
Control panel retrofits
When a panel rebuild leaves an existing M5 male stud in place, this female connector drops over it and accepts new 6 mm tubing, saving you from re-tapping or repositioning the valve bank.
Is the Airtac PCF Female Thread Straight Fitting PCF6M5D the Right Part?
The M5x0.8 female thread is the smallest port in the PCF ladder and is the natural match for compact solenoid valves, speed controllers and sensors with an M5 stud. If your component has a 1/8 inch PT male stud instead, step up to the PCF601 with the 01 thread code. On the tube side, Dia 6 sits between Dia 4 and Dia 8 in the same family: Dia 4 suits light-duty instrumentation runs, while Dia 8 moves noticeably more air over the same distance because capacity follows the bore.
One rule is absolute: the chuck holds only the exact tube OD it is made for. A Dia 6 fitting will not seal on 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) tube, and no amount of insertion force will make it hold.
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 PCF6M5D FAQ
It is an AirTAC one-touch female connector with a Dia 6 mm tube end and an M5x0.8 internal thread. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), it works on vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa, and the temperature range is -20 to +70 C. It is for soft nylon or polyurethane tube, and this D variant is the black version.
No. On this catalogue the M5 sizes are sealed by a sealing gasket rather than the pre-applied thread sealant used on the larger PCF threads, so the PCF6M5D screws directly onto a clean M5x0.8 male stud. Avoid adding PTFE tape, since it can prevent the gasket face from seating properly.
