The AirTAC Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED603D 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 PED603D is an AirTAC PED male run tee, a three-port one-touch fitting in which the 3/8in male thread sits in line with the run and a Dia 6 tube socket branches off at 90 degrees. Push the 6mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing into each socket until it bottoms out: the internal chuck grips the tube wall and the stainless spring gasket plus NBR O-ring seal it. Pressing the POM release ring frees the tube again. Threaded ports of this size arrive with sealant already applied, so the 3/8in PT thread seals straight into the port.
This is the resin and brass one-touch profile, rated 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa, vacuum capability down to -750 mmHg and a working temperature of -20 to +70 C. The D suffix here gives the fitting a black body rather than the standard grey, which matters on machines where dark housings and black cable dressings dominate. Note that Dia 6 is the smallest tube size AirTAC makes for the 3/8in PED, so this SKU sits at the fine end of the bore ladder for this thread.

Use the 3/8in run to carry supply along a gantry beam while the Dia 6 branch drops down to a compact vacuum ejector or parallel gripper, keeping the arm's plumbing to a single light tube.
The black body of the D suffix blends with the black guards and cable trunking typical of stainless-clad packaging lines, so the tee stays visually invisible at an in-line 3/8in drop point.
Screw the 3/8in PT thread into a drop-leg regulator outlet and run 6mm polyurethane to a bench-mounted clamp cylinder, with the tee's in-line port continuing the run to a second station.
On the 3/8in PED row AirTAC offers Dia 6, 8, 10 and 12, so there is no tube size below this one at this thread - if your circuit runs finer than 6mm, step down to a 1/4in thread instead, where the PED602 pairs the same Dia 6 bore with a smaller port. Stepping up to the PED803 gives a Dia 8 bore and noticeably more capacity through the same 3/8in port, at the cost of a larger release collar and a stiffer minimum bend radius on the tubing.
Match the 3/8in PT thread to the port drawing before ordering: an oversize thread forced into a 1/4in tapped hole will not seal with the factory-applied sealant. And remember that one-touch tube OD must match exactly - a Dia 6 socket will not grip 1/4in (6.35mm) or 8mm tube, and mixing inch and metric tubing is the most common cause of leaks on converted circuits.
Quick checklist
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, negative pressure down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), and a temperature range of -20 to +70 C. The part is a male run tee joining Dia 6mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 3/8in PT male thread, finished in black (D suffix). These figures belong to the resin and brass one-touch profile - they are not the 0.9 MPa / 150 C metal BPC ratings.
No. One-touch chucks are sized to a single exact tube OD, and 1/4in nominal tube measures 6.35mm, which the Dia 6 chuck will not seal or grip reliably. Use genuine 6mm OD soft nylon or polyurethane tubing, or select a fitting in the imperial N-series instead. Also note that on the 3/8in PED, Dia 6 is the smallest tube AirTAC offers - there is no Dia 4 option at this thread.
