About the Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED4M5
The PED4M5 is an AirTAC PED male run tee, the fitting you use when one M5 port has to feed two Dia 4 mm lines with a 90 degree branch while the through-line keeps running straight. The M5x0.8 stud screws into small metric ports, the two Dia 4 tube chucks take soft nylon or polyurethane tubing, and a push of the tube locks it as the stainless spring gasket and chuck grip the outside diameter. Pressing the release ring frees the tube again without tools.
This is a resin and brass one-touch part, so it carries the resin spec profile: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa and a temperature window of -20 to +70 C. Because the thread is M5, it seals with a sealing gasket rather than the pre-applied thread sealant used on the larger PT-threaded sizes in this range - an easy detail to miss when you are mixing M5 and 1/8 inch fittings on the same manifold.

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 PED4M5 Is Used
Compact solenoid valve manifolds
Small 5-port valves on pick-and-place units often carry M5x0.8 ports. A run tee on one of those ports splits the supply into a control line and an actuator line without adapters, and the gasket-sealed M5 stud avoids the bulk of a reducing bushing.
Laboratory and analyser air circuits
Sample-handling rigs and small lab automation built with Dia 4 mm polyurethane tube need tidy, releasable branches at low flow. The straight through-run of the PED shape keeps the main path undisturbed while the branch drops off at 90 degrees.
Distribution blocks behind control panels
Where a small air distribution block feeds two miniature cylinders from one outlet, this tee takes the block's M5 output and lands Dia 4 lines on both the through-port and the branch, all hand-tight and fully demountable for rework.
Is the Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED4M5 the Right Part?
Dia 4 is the smallest tube size the PED series offers with M5, and there is no smaller option - so if your tubing is below 4 mm OD, this family will not hold it. Step up to PED6M5 if you move the branch line to Dia 6 mm; the port thread stays the same, the bore grows, and with it the air path for a given length of run. There is also no thread below M5 in this range, so M5 is the floor for compact metric ports.
If your port is 1/8 inch instead of M5x0.8, the equivalent part is PED401. And a reminder worth repeating: the chuck grips one OD only, so a Dia 4 fitting will not seal on 3 mm or 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) tube even though it looks close. Match the tube OD exactly, every line, every time.
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 PED4M5 FAQ
It is a resin one-touch male run tee for Dia 4 mm tubing with an M5x0.8 male thread. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), it holds vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa, and the operating temperature range is -20 to +70 C. It suits soft nylon or polyurethane tubing, and the grey body is standard with a D suffix available in black.
No. Unlike the larger 1/8 to 1/2 inch PT threads in this catalogue, which arrive with sealant pre-applied to the stud, the M5x0.8 size is sealed by a dedicated sealing gasket. Screw it in hand-tight plus a small firm turn, and do not wind PTFE tape over the gasket face or you can prevent it from seating properly.
