About the Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED1204-S
The PED1204-S is AirTAC's male run tee from the PED family of one-touch fittings, sized for Dia 12 mm tubing with a 1/2 inch PT male thread. A run tee differs from a branch tee: the tube passes straight through the body in line with the thread, and a second tube port leaves at 90 degrees, so one thread supplies two runs from a single port. Connection is genuinely one-touch - push the tubing in until it bottoms, the stainless chuck gasket grips it, and pressing the release ring frees it again.
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, and a temperature range of -20 to +70 C with soft nylon or polyurethane tubing. The -S suffix does not change any of these figures. On the PED family it fits a SUS304 stud while the body remains PBT, so you gain a corrosion-resistant thread interface without re-rating the part. The 1/2in PT thread arrives with sealant already applied, and no separate tape step is needed.

POM release button and chuck, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket, NBR O-ring; body brass or PBT depending on the part. Stainless (-S): SUS304 in place of brass - a solid SUS304 body on the PC and POC straight connectors, and a PBT body with a SUS304 stud on the elbow, tee and branch shapes. Working pressure, proof pressure and temperature are unchanged from the standard version. AirTAC publishes flow as a characteristic curve rather than a single figure, so no L/min value is listed.

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 PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED1204-S Is Used
Automotive weld-cell clamp circuits
Feeding paired clamp cylinders in a weld cell, where the run through the tee follows the fixture rail and the branch drops to the second actuator, all behind close guard panels.
Injection moulding ejector manifolds
Distributing air along an ejector plate on an injection moulding machine, where the in-line run continues to the far corner and the branch feeds a core-pull valve.
Canning line gate actuators
Plumbing divertor gates along a canning conveyor, with the main run running gutter-length and the threaded port landing straight onto a solenoid valve outlet.
Is the Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED1204-S the Right Part?
Dia 12 mm is the largest tube size AirTAC makes in this family, so there is no step up - if your line is bigger, this series is not the answer. One step down at the 1/2in thread is the PED1004-S in Dia 10, which buys you a slightly lighter body and a smaller chuck where flow demand allows. On the thread side, PED1203-S in 3/8in also exists for Dia 12 tubing, useful when the port on your manifold or valve plate is the smaller size.
Match the tube exactly: this fitting holds only tubing with a 12 mm outside diameter. Nominal 1/2 inch imperial tube measures 12.7 mm and will neither seat nor seal, so measure before ordering. If your schematic shows two branch legs at 90 degrees instead of an in-line run, the PEB branch tee is the correct shape, not this one.
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 PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED1204-S FAQ
It joins Dia 12 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/2 inch PT male thread. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum capability is -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa, and the temperature range is -20 to +70 C. The -S suffix fits a SUS304 stud; every pressure, vacuum and temperature figure is identical to the standard PED1204.
No, and this matters when quoting materials. On the PED family the SUS304 upgrade applies to the male stud only - the body stays PBT with the standard POM release components, aluminium guide, stainless spring gasket and NBR seal. The part also has no published certification, corrosion class or surface-finish figure, so it should be selected on the stud material and the standard resin-line ratings rather than on any certified claim.
