About the Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH1004
The PH1004 is an AirTAC PH universal male elbow, a swivelling one-touch fitting that connects Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/2 in PT male thread. Unlike the fixed PL elbow, the universal body rotates on the thread, so after you have tightened the 1/2 in male stud into the port you can turn the elbow to point the tube run exactly where it needs to go. Push the tube home and the internal chuck grips it; press the release ring and it frees the tube again.
This is a resin and brass series part: 0 to 1.0 MPa (0 to 10 kgf/cm2) working pressure, -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C. The 1/2 in threaded stud ships with sealant already on the thread, and the POM release button and chuck sit on an aluminium-alloy guide with a stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring doing the sealing.

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 PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH1004 Is Used
Pneumatic press cylinder orientation
On a bench-mounted pneumatic press, the cylinder port often faces the operator or the frame. The PH1004's swivel body lets you tighten the 1/2 in stud fully and then rotate the elbow so the 10 mm tube run clears the press uprights instead of fouling them.
Control panel valve manifold exits
When a solenoid valve manifold sits inside a control cabinet, outlet ports rarely point the way the tubing needs to run. A universal male elbow on each port re-aims the 10 mm lines toward the gland plate without re-clocking the valves.
Trailer tipper body actuation
Tipper and tail-lift cylinders on delivery vehicles sit where the port direction changes with body position. The PH1004 swivels on its 1/2 in thread to keep the 10 mm nylon line away from the pivot and ram movement.
Is the Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH1004 the Right Part?
The PH ladder at 1/2 in PT runs Dia 8, Dia 10 and Dia 12 only - there is no Dia 4 or Dia 6 part on a 1/2 in thread in this series. Step down to the PH1003 if the actuator port or hose on the machine is Dia 8; step up to the PH1204 for a Dia 12 main air drop. Bore affects the air path capacity, so a heavier cylinder or longer run is the usual reason to move up.
Match the thread to the port first, the tube second. If the port is 3/8 in, this is not your part - look at PH1003 in that thread instead. And remember the tube OD must match exactly: a Dia 10 fitting will not hold 1/4 in (6 mm) hose, no matter how hard you push it in.
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 PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH1004 FAQ
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, temperature -20 to +70 C. The fitting takes Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube on one side and has a 1/2 in PT male thread on the other, with sealant pre-applied to the thread. It is part of the resin and brass one-touch range, not the 0.9 MPa / 150 C metal BP line.
Yes. The 1/2 in male stud is fixed relative to the thread, but the elbow body rotates on it, so you orient the tube outlet after installation rather than by carefully clocking the stud as you tighten. This is the practical difference from the PL male elbow, whose outlet angle is fixed. Before you order, confirm the tube is genuinely Dia 10 mm OD - the chuck only grips that size, and a 6 mm or 8 mm tube will not seal in this fitting.
