About the Airtac PGJ Plug Pin Reducing Straight Connector PGJ12-10D
The PGJ12-10D is an AirTAC plug-in reducer, a straight tube-to-tube union that joins Dia 12 mm tubing on one end to Dia 10 mm on the other. Each end carries its own one-touch chuck: push the tube home and the stainless spring gasket plus chuck jaws grip the tube OD, press the POM release ring and that tube frees - the two ends release independently, so you can rework one leg without breaking the other.
It belongs to the resin and brass one-touch line: 0-1.0 MPa working pressure, -750 mmHg vacuum capability, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C, for soft nylon or polyurethane tubing. The body is PBT over a brass inner barrel, and the D in the code means the whole body is moulded in black rather than the standard grey - on this union family the D changes the body colour, not just the release button.

Fitting & Sealing Notes
- check Cut the tube square and clean before pushing it home, or the seal will leak.
- check Push until it stops, then pull back to check the chuck has gripped.
- check To release, press the collet ring fully in and pull the tube out.
- check Threaded parts arrive with sealant on the thread; M5 sizes use a sealing gasket.
- check Match the tube OD exactly - a 6 mm fitting will not hold 1/4" tube.
Where the Airtac PGJ Plug Pin Reducing Straight Connector PGJ12-10D Is Used
Packaging conveyor drop
Stepping a Dia 12 mm trunk run down to Dia 10 mm legs that feed the gripper cylinders on a carton-sealing conveyor, with the black union tucked under the side guard.
Manifold branch step-down
Taking a Dia 12 mm drop off a factory air header and reducing it in-line to Dia 10 mm before the filter-regulator set on a bottling line, with no threaded joint to seal.
Cabinet retrofit splice
Joining a Dia 10 mm actuator line into an existing Dia 12 mm distribution run inside a machine electrical cabinet during a control retrofit, in black to match the panel hardware.
Is the Airtac PGJ Plug Pin Reducing Straight Connector PGJ12-10D the Right Part?
PGJ12-10 is the largest plug-in reducer in this catalogue - there is no Dia 16 tube here, so nothing exists above it, and this SKU is the top rung of the ladder. The neighbour below is PGJ10-8, which performs the same in-line step one size down; further down the ladder, PGJ8-6 and PGJ6-4 serve smaller drops. If you need a branch rather than an in-line change of diameter, the PKD reducer tee or the PEG different-diameter tee is the right shape instead, and no threaded fitting is involved anywhere because the reduction happens inside one push-in body. Metric tube OD must match exactly on both ends - the Dia 10 mm chuck will not seat 3/8 inch hose even though the numbers look close.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Tube outside diameter matches exactly
- ✓ Thread size and standard match the port
- ✓ Working pressure within 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2)
- ✓ Temperature within -20 to +70 °C
Airtac PGJ Plug Pin Reducing Straight Connector PGJ12-10D FAQ
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. The fitting joins Dia 12 mm tubing to Dia 10 mm tubing, both ends push-in, with no thread anywhere on the part. Use soft nylon or polyurethane tube only.
No. A one-touch chuck grips one exact tube OD, so a Dia 10 mm chuck will not seal 3/8 inch hose. Use genuine Dia 12 mm and Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube, cut square, and push it in far enough to seat fully past the spring gasket before pressurising.
