The AirTAC Airtac PCF Female Thread Straight Fitting PCF802D 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 PCF802D is an AirTAC PCF one-touch female connector: a fitting whose threaded side is an internal 1/4in PT port and whose other side grips an 8mm outside diameter soft nylon or polyurethane tube. The D suffix makes the body black rather than the standard grey, which helps the fitting disappear against dark machine frames and enclosures. Push the tube straight into the chuck and the stainless spring gasket plus POM chuck grip it immediately; press the POM release ring and the tube slides back out for rework.
This part belongs to the resin and brass profile, not the metal BPC line: 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. The thread arrives with sealant already applied, so no extra tape or paste is needed before screwing it onto a male stud or nozzle. Materials include a PBT body, brass stud, aluminium-alloy guide and an NBR O-ring sealing the tube.

Screws directly onto the 1/4in male outlet of a 5/2 or 3/2 solenoid valve on a pneumatic control manifold, letting 8mm hose run out to the cylinder without an extra nipple.
On a carton-sealing or shrink-wrap machine, the female thread picks up the male port of the filter-regulator-lubricator, and the black body blends with the dark guarding around the frame.
Inside an electrical cabinet where the air drop passes through, a 1/4in internal thread mates with a threaded bulkhead stud, and the 8mm side feeds distribution blocks or small actuators.
Dia 8 with a 1/4in port is the workhorse pairing on a 1/4in manifold stub. Step down to the Dia 6 version when you are feeding a compact gripper or a small pilot line where stiffness of the larger hose is awkward to route; step up to Dia 10 when the run is long or the actuator cycle clearly wants more bore. Both neighbours exist on this 1/4in thread. If your port is only 1/8in, the same female shape is offered in that size too.
Choose a female connector over a male stud type when the mating part already has male threads exposed - a solenoid valve outlet, an FRL port or a machine-mounted nozzle. Check the thread standard: this catalogue is PT, so a G or NPT port needs adaptation rather than forcing the fitting in. And match the tube exactly - an 8mm chuck will not seal on 5/16in or 10mm hose no matter how hard it is pushed in.
Quick checklist
Tube side accepts 8mm OD soft nylon or polyurethane tubing; threaded side is a 1/4in PT female port. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum down to -750 mmHg, proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and the operating temperature range is -20 to +70 C. The body is PBT with a brass stud, and the D suffix means the body is black. Thread standard is PT throughout this catalogue.
No. AirTAC ships threaded one-touch fittings with sealant already applied to the thread, so the 1/4in female port can go straight onto a clean male stud or nozzle. Only M5 sizes in the range use a sealing gasket instead. Make sure the mating male thread is undamaged and free of old tape, because reusing sealant-wrapped ports with fresh sealant can jam the thread.
