The AirTAC Airtac PEB T-Shaped Straight Thread Tee Connector PEB601 is a genuine male branch tee for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The PEB601 is an AirTAC male branch tee, the fitting you reach for when a 90 degree tap-off has to leave a straight tube run without cutting the line. It takes Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube into both legs and screws into a 1/8 in PT male port on the third leg. Both tube ends work the same one-touch way: push the tube fully home, the stainless spring gasket and chuck lock it against pressure, and the POM release button frees it again when you need to re-route.
This is the resin and brass profile, not the metal BP line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and a -20 to +70 C window. The body is PBT with a brass male stud, the guide is aluminium alloy and the O-ring is NBR. AirTAC ships the thread with sealant already applied, so a layer of PTFE tape on top is not needed.

Screwing into the vacuum port of a compact ejector on a packaging line, with 6 mm tube carrying the exhaust away at 90 degrees to the supply run.
Adding a pressure-switch leg off a 6 mm main feed to the filler heads, where the stud thread lands directly on the switch port without a separate adapter.
Branching supply from an existing Dia 6 line to a small clamp cylinder, so one solenoid outlet serves both motions without a manifold block.
At the 1/8 in thread step on the PEB ladder this sits between PEB401 (Dia 4 tube) and PEB801 (Dia 8 tube). Stepping down to Dia 4 buys routing freedom in cramped cabinets but halves the bore, which shows on longer runs; stepping up to Dia 8 feeds actuators with real volume demand. The same Dia 6 tube also exists on PEB602 with a 1/4 in thread if the port you are filling is larger. Do not mix bore and port: a Dia 6 fitting will not seal on 1/4 in (6.35 mm) tube, only on true 6 mm OD.
Choose a branch tee (PEB) over a run tee (PED) when the take-off should sit at 90 degrees to the through-flow; if the branch must line up with one leg instead, PED is the shape you want.
Quick checklist
Tube: Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane. Thread: 1/8 in PT male, supplied with sealant. Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, operating temperature -20 to +70 C. Construction: PBT body, brass stud, POM release button and chuck, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket, NBR O-ring.
In AirTAC's naming, PEB puts the threaded leg at 90 degrees to the tube path, so the branch leaves sideways while the main tube run continues straight through. PED, the male run tee, arranges the port so the flow path reads more like a line with a leg in the run direction. Pick PEB when you want the tap-off physically clear of the straight run, for example where a sensor or secondary actuator hangs off to one side. Both use the same one-touch grip and the same 0-1.0 MPa resin-profile ratings.
