The AirTAC Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED601 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 PED601 is an AirTAC PED male run tee in the resin one-touch family. It joins two legs of Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing and carries a 1/8" PT male stud positioned in the run of the tee, so the stud sits in-line with one tube leg while the second tube leg leaves at 90 degrees. This run-through geometry is what separates PED from the PEB branch tee, where the male thread is on the perpendicular leg instead.
Connection is push-to-seal: push the tube firmly into the chuck until it bottoms, and the stainless spring gasket and POM chuck grip and seal it; press the release ring to free it. As a resin one-touch part it is rated 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2) working, 1.5 MPa proof, -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum and -20 to +70 C. The body is PBT with a brass stud, and the 1/8" thread arrives with sealant already applied - M5 sizes in this range use a sealing gasket instead, but this stud does not need tape.

Screw the 1/8" stud into a spare port on a pick-and-place gripper manifold and split the Dia 6 mm supply into two push-in legs feeding left-hand and right-hand suction cups from one tap.
Tee a Dia 6 mm line at the cooling station so one 1/8" run-tee stud takes plant supply while both tube legs continue to paired air-nozzle rinse jets over the bottle conveyor.
Insert the run tee mid-line in a Dia 6 mm nylon circuit on a pneumatic leak-test bench so the in-line 1/8" stud carries a gauge or transducer without cutting and re-fitting the main run.
Both neighbours exist at this thread. Step down to PED401 (Dia 4 tube) when the line feeds a small gripper or pilot port where a 6 mm bore is more airflow than the actuator needs; step up to PED801 (Dia 8 tube) when the branch feeds a cylinder with higher consumption and you want less pressure drop over a longer run. On the thread side, PED602 (1/4") gives a stiffer stud for larger manifold ports, while a PED M5 version covers Dia 6 down to the smallest tapped ports - both are in the PED ladder.
Match the stud to a genuine 1/8" PT tapped port and remember tube OD must match exactly: a Dia 6 fitting will not seal or hold 1/4" (6.35 mm) tube, which is a different size. If your port is a wall you tap into sideways rather than a point along the main run, the PEB male branch tee puts the stud on the 90-degree leg instead and is the better shape.
Quick checklist
This SKU is a Dia 6 mm tube male run tee with a 1/8" PT male stud. Resin one-touch ratings: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and a temperature range of -20 to +70 C. Use soft nylon or polyurethane tubing of exactly Dia 6 mm on both tube legs.
No. AirTAC ships this threaded one-touch fitting with sealant already applied to the 1/8" PT thread, so it can be screwed straight into a tapped port; sealing tape is only likely to shed debris into the circuit. Note that the smallest M5 versions in this series use a sealing gasket rather than sealant, and that the stud on a PED sits in the run of the tee - if you need the male thread on the 90-degree leg, order a PEB branch tee instead.
