The AirTAC Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED4M5D-S is a genuine male run tee for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The PED4M5D-S is an AirTAC PED male run tee in the resin one-touch range, sized for Dia 4 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube and an M5x0.8 male thread. A run tee keeps the line straight through the main run and drops a 90 degree branch with the male thread, so one push-fit port can feed a tool while the supply continues downstream. Push the tube in and the stainless spring gasket plus chuck grip it; press the POM release ring to let it go.
This is the standard resin spec profile, not the metal BP line: 0-1.0 MPa working pressure, -750 mmHg vacuum, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C. The D suffix on a PED turns the body black as well as the release button, and the -S makes the male stud SUS304 stainless steel while the PBT body, POM button and NBR O-ring stay as standard. Unlike the larger PT threads in this catalogue, the M5 stud is sealed with a gasket rather than pre-applied thread sealant.

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.

The straight run carries supply air through the fixture while the M5 branch feeds a compact pressure switch, confirming clamping pressure before the table indexes.
Dia 4 tube suits the small vacuum lines on electronics pick-and-place heads; the branch tees a vacuum sensor into the line, and the -750 mmHg rating covers the duty.
Tapped into the supply run of a conveyor stopper cylinder, the M5 branch carries a reed-switch or pilot signal without breaking the main feed to the actuator.
Within the PED ladder at M5 there are only two tube sizes: Dia 4 and Dia 6. This SKU is therefore the smallest M5 branch tee AirTAC makes; if your flow feels starved, the step up is PED6M5D-S, which adds bore for the same M5 port. If your port is a 1/8 PT hole instead, the 1/8 row of the PED table runs from Dia 4 up to Dia 10, giving far more room to grow.
Match the tube exactly: a Dia 4 chuck will not clamp 5/32 inch or 6 mm tube, and forcing a mismatch is the most common cause of a one-touch leak. For a branch that turns the flow rather than tee-ing it, choose the PEB male branch tee instead of this run tee.
Quick checklist
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. It joins Dia 4 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to an M5x0.8 male thread (PT thread standard across this catalogue). The -S makes the stud SUS304; the ratings are identical to the standard grey or black version.
No. In this catalogue the larger PT-threaded parts arrive with sealant on the thread, but M5 sizes are sealed by a gasket instead, so you fit the PED4M5D-S into the port as supplied. Do add a sealant to other tapered threads you mate it with, and never exceed 1.0 MPa working pressure or 70 C, since soft polyurethane tube is usually the limiting factor near the top of either figure.
