The AirTAC Airtac PEW T-Type Side Reducing Tee Fitting PEW8-6 is a genuine different diameter tee for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The AirTAC PEW8-6 is a different-diameter union tee: a three-port, tube-to-tube fitting with no threaded port at all. It joins two Dia 8 mm runs and steps the third leg down to Dia 6 mm, so a branch can drop to a smaller actuator or ejector line without stacking a separate reducer behind an equal tee.
It uses the resin one-touch spec profile: 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2) working pressure, 1.5 MPa proof pressure, -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum and -20 to +70 C. Push each tube home and the internal chuck grips it; press the release ring around that port and the same tube slides straight back out. Because there is no thread, there is no sealant to apply - the body is grey as standard, and the D suffix version changes the body colour to black.

Split a Dia 8 mm supply drop at the tee and let the Dia 6 branch feed a compact vacuum ejector, with the vacuum rating of -750 mmHg (10 Torr) covering the suction side.
Take the Dia 8 mm outlet run from a valve manifold and reduce to Dia 6 mm in one fitting where the actuator line leaves the manifold plate.
On a rotary indexing table, branch the Dia 8 mm ring main down to a Dia 6 mm feed for the small clamp cylinder at each station, using one body instead of a tee plus reducer.
This sits mid-ladder in the reducing tee range. Step down to PEW6-4 when the main run is 6 mm and the branch feeds a small Dia 4 line; step up to PEW10-8 when the drop is a 10 mm main feeding an 8 mm branch. Every step trades a larger branch bore for a smaller one, so match the smallest leg to the tube the downstream device actually takes.
Tube OD must match exactly on all three ports - a Dia 6 leg will not grip 1/4 in (6.35 mm) tube, and an 8 mm run will not seat in the 6 mm branch. If all three legs are the same size, use the plain PE union tee instead; the W version only pays off when you genuinely need two sizes in one body.
Quick checklist
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), temperature -20 to +70 C. It is a tube-to-tube reducing union tee with two Dia 8 mm legs and one Dia 6 mm leg, for soft nylon or polyurethane tube, in a grey resin body.
Yes. Each of the three ports has its own gripping chuck and release ring, so pressing the collar around a single port frees only that tube while the other two legs stay sealed in place.
