The AirTAC Airtac PCF Female Thread Straight Fitting PCF802 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 AirTAC PCF802 is a one-touch female connector from the PCF range: a straight fitting whose machine end is an INTERNAL 1/4 inch PT thread and whose tube end accepts Dia 8 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing. Where the PC male connector screws into a tapped port, the PCF is the part you use when the port already carries a male taper thread and you want the fitting to screw down onto it - a common situation on imported valve manifolds and FRL outlets. Thread standard throughout this catalogue is PT.
Push the tube fully home and the stainless spring gasket plus POM chuck grip it against the Dia 8 bore; press the release ring to free it. This is the resin/brass spec profile: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, temperature -20 to +70 C. The body is PBT with a brass stud, the O-ring is NBR, and the internal thread mates with a male taper thread rather than carrying factory-applied sealant like the male parts do.

Screwing onto the male outlet ports of a 5/2 solenoid manifold on a packaging machine, turning a threaded port into a push-in Dia 8 line to the actuator in one motion.
Sitting on the male-threaded outlets of an FRL or shuttle block inside a control cabinet, feeding Dia 8 nylon drops out to grippers and ejector cylinders.
Providing a compact, straight, female-threaded take-off on an indexer's port block where a male stud would stand off too far from the rotating body.
In the Dia 8 / 1/4 in corner of the female-connector ladder, the neighbouring tube sizes are Dia 6 (PCF602) below and Dia 10 (PCF1002) above. Stepping down to Dia 6 buys compactness on a narrow port; stepping up to Dia 10 moves more air through the bore on longer runs - match it to the tubing you already run, because a Dia 6 fitting will not grip Dia 6-plus tube and the OD must match exactly. Check the mating thread before ordering: an internal 1/4 in PT is wrong for a female-port machine, where a PC male connector is the answer instead.
If you need to pass this connection through a cabinet or guard sheet, the PMF bulkhead female connector in Dia 8 uses an M16x1 locknut and is the purpose-built alternative; the PHF universal female elbow swivels when the approach angle is awkward.
Quick checklist
It is a female one-touch connector joining Dia 8 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/4 inch PT internal thread. Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, temperature -20 to +70 C. Body PBT with brass stud, POM chuck and release button, stainless spring gasket, NBR O-ring.
The PCF802 has no sealant pre-applied, because the sealing happens on the mating male taper thread it screws onto. Fit the male thread with thread sealant or PTFE tape and tighten hand-plus-a-quarter-turn; keep sealant off the first thread so it cannot migrate into the air path or the Dia 8 chuck.
