The AirTAC Airtac PED T-Shaped Side Thread Tee Fitting PED801D 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 PED801D is an AirTAC PED male run tee, the black D-suffix version in the resin one-touch range. It joins a Dia 8 mm tube to a 1/8in PT male thread while carrying the main line straight through the body and taking a 90-degree branch off the third port. Push the tube into the chuck until it bottoms, and the stainless spring gasket plus the gripping chuck lock it against pressure; press the POM release ring and the tube slides free. On this series the D suffix changes the body colour as well as the button, so the whole tee arrives black, which helps where fittings need to be visually matched to enclosures or kept distinct from grey utility lines.
This is the resin and brass profile, not the metal BP line: 0 to 1.0 MPa working pressure, -750 mmHg vacuum, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C. The 1/8in male thread is supplied with sealant already applied, so it seals straight into a PT-tapped port. Use soft nylon or polyurethane tube only, and match the 8 mm OD exactly - a 5/16in tube will not seat in the chuck.

A robotic palletiser runs an 8 mm nylon main along the gantry; the PED801D tees off mid-run to feed a compact ejector on the gripper, and the black body reads clearly against the stainless frame.
A 1/8in PT-tapped boss on an air receiver or manifold takes the male thread, while the Dia 8 line continues straight through to the point of use - the run-tee shape keeps the main flow path unbroken.
Pad-printing heads need a clean air feed per colour station; the tee branches off the machine's main Dia 8 polyurethane line to each head's solenoid without adding extra couplings in the run.
On the PED 1/8in ladder the neighbours are PED601 (Dia 6 tube) below and PED1001 (Dia 10 tube) above. Stepping down to 6 mm gains compactness for light actuator feeds; stepping up to 10 mm raises the bore, so the through-flow and branch flow both rise where longer runs or hungrier cylinders are fed. If your port is 1/4in instead, the same Dia 8 tube is available as PED802.
Choose a run tee over a branch tee when the main line must continue unobstructed and the branch is the secondary take-off - for example, a gauge or sensor tap. If you need the branch to swivel into any angle rather than a fixed 90 degrees, the PH family is the better shape; if you want the tee to pass through a panel wall, look at the PMF bulkhead connector instead.
Quick checklist
Working pressure 0 to 1.0 MPa (0 to 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 fitting joins Dia 8 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/8in PT male thread. It is the resin and brass one-touch profile with a POM release button and NBR O-ring; the D suffix gives it the black body and button.
No. AirTAC ships threaded one-touch fittings with sealant already applied to the thread, so the PED801D screws straight into a 1/8in PT-tapped port. Only the small M5 sizes in this catalogue use a sealing gasket instead. Keep in mind the thread standard here is PT - if your port is tapped NPT or BSPP/G, this part is not the match.
