About the Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED1204D
The PED1204D is an AirTAC male run tee in the one-touch range, sized for Dia 12 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube and a 1/2in PT male thread. Unlike a branch tee, the male thread sits on the straight-through run, so the main line passes in line through the fitting and the 1/2in port feeds a regulator, valve or cylinder port at 90 degrees from that run. The body arrives in black because the D suffix on this family changes the body colour, not just the button.
Installation is a push: tube inserted square into the chuck is gripped by the stainless spring gasket and POM chuck, sealed by the NBR O-ring, and freed again by pressing the release ring. The 1/2in PT thread ships with sealant already applied, so no tape or paste is needed - thread it in, leave roughly two flats of clearance between the sealant end and the shoulder, and tighten. This resin/brass profile is rated 0-1.0 MPa working, 1.5 MPa proof, -750 mmHg vacuum and -20 to +70 C, which is the standard AirTAC one-touch spec, not the 0.9 MPa / 150 C metal BP line.

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 PED1204D Is Used
CNC tool-changer ring main
A 12 mm trunk line running in a straight pass through the fitting keeps the tool-changer supply uninterrupted, while the 1/2in branch drops to the clamp cylinder block.
Palletiser valve manifold feed
The black body sits cleanly beside dark valve islands on palletiser frames, and the 1/2in PT port lands directly on a standard manifold inlet without adapters.
Truck tipper body controls
On tipper and tail-lift air circuits exposed to road grime, the 12 mm bore feeds the tipping pilot line and the pre-sealed PT thread resists backing out on vibrating chassis rails.
Is the Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED1204D the Right Part?
Step down on the run and you reach PED1004, the Dia 10 tube version on the same 1/2in thread - flow capacity drops with the bore but the port thread stays the same, useful when a 12 mm line transitions down for a smaller actuator on the branch. Step down on the thread instead and PED1203 gives you Dia 12 tube on 3/8in. There is no larger step: Dia 12 is the biggest tube size in this catalogue, so PED1204 sits at the top of the ladder for 1/2in ports.
Match the tube exactly - the chuck grips Dia 12 mm only, and a 1/2in imperial tube will not seal here even though the thread size looks familiar. If your 12 mm line needs to pass through a panel wall rather than turn off it, the PM bulkhead connector is the shape to compare; if you need the male thread on the branch instead of the run, that is the PEB branch tee.
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 PED1204D FAQ
It is a male run tee for Dia 12 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube with a 1/2in PT male thread, finished in black. Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and a temperature range of -20 to +70 C. The PT thread is supplied with sealant pre-applied.
Both are three-way male fittings for the same tube sizes, but the position of the male thread differs. On the PED run tee the thread is in line with the straight run, so your main tube path passes straight through. On the PEB branch tee the thread is on the 90 degree leg and the run is tube-to-tube. Choose PED when the 1/2in port should hang off a continuous trunk line, PEB when the trunk should keep flowing past a dead-end port.
