About the Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH601-S
The PH601-S is an AirTAC PH universal male elbow in the stainless variant: it joins Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/8 in PT male thread, and the universal thread lets you set the outlet to any angle after the fitting is installed. Push the tube home and the internal chuck grips it; press the release ring and it frees the tube again.
This is the resin one-touch spec profile, so it runs at 0 to 1.0 MPa working pressure, holds -750 mmHg vacuum, proofs at 1.5 MPa and works from -20 to +70 C. On the -S version of the PH family the stud is SUS304 stainless while the body remains PBT, and the 1/8 in thread arrives with sealant pre-applied, so no extra tape or paste is needed on the port.

POM release button and chuck, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket, NBR O-ring; body brass or PBT depending on the part. Stainless (-S): SUS304 in place of brass - a solid SUS304 body on the PC and POC straight connectors, and a PBT body with a SUS304 stud on the elbow, tee and branch shapes. Working pressure, proof pressure and temperature are unchanged from the standard version. AirTAC publishes flow as a characteristic curve rather than a single figure, so no L/min value is listed.

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 PH601-S Is Used
Pick-and-place gripper heads
On a compact parallel gripper the air port often points sideways or down into the moving carriage. A universal elbow lets the fitter rotate the outlet so Dia 6 tube exits cleanly along the arm without kinking at the stroke reversal.
Electroplating line actuation
Near plating tanks, acid mist attacks brass fittings exposed in the cell area. The SUS304 stud on the PH601-S stands up better to that atmosphere while the PBT body keeps the one-touch release working on theDia 6 cylinder feed.
Bakery tray wash-down zone
Conveyor pusher cylinders in the tray-wash section get hosed down daily. Routing the Dia 6 supply through a swivel elbow at the port keeps the tube off the deck plates and away from the spray fan of the wash nozzle.
Is the Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH601-S the Right Part?
On the 1/8 in thread the PH ladder runs Dia 4, Dia 6 and Dia 8 only. Step down to PH401-S for light pilot lines, or up to PH801-S when the actuator port needs a stiffer bore and more capacity; if you need Dia 10 tube you have to move to a larger thread size on this series. Thread side, the same Dia 6 tube is also available as PH602 on a 1/4 in PT thread if your manifold port is bigger. The tube OD must match exactly - a Dia 6 socket will not seal on 1/4 in (6.35 mm) tube. Choose the PH shape when the port axis and the tube run are not in the same plane and you want to dial in the angle by hand rather than stacking a separate elbow.
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 PH601-S FAQ
This is a Dia 6 mm one-touch universal male elbow with a 1/8 in PT male thread and a SUS304 stud. Working pressure is 0 to 1.0 MPa (0 to 10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and the operating temperature range is -20 to +70 C. It is rated for soft nylon or polyurethane tubing only.
On PH-family parts the -S upgrade replaces the brass male stud with SUS304 stainless steel; the elbow body stays PBT and the pressure, vacuum and temperature ratings are identical to the standard PH601. The stainless stud is for corrosion resistance at the threaded port - near wash-down, marine air or chemical mist - not for a pressure increase, and the published dimensions are unchanged.
