About the Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH601D-S
The PH601D-S is AirTAC's PH universal male elbow in the SUS304 stainless variant, joining Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/8in PT male thread. Unlike a fixed elbow, the universal body lets you rotate the elbow to the exact approach angle the tube needs, then push the tube straight into the chuck - the stainless spring gasket and chuck grip it on insertion, and pressing the release ring frees it again. The D in the code marks the black body option.
This is the resin spec profile, not the metal BP line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa, vacuum to -750 mmHg, proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and a working temperature of -20 to +70 C. Because the code ends in -S, the male STUD is SUS304 while the elbow body stays PBT - so the thread that seats into the port resists corrosion without AirTAC re-rating the part by a single figure. The 1/8in thread arrives with sealant already applied, as do all threaded PT sizes in this catalogue.

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 PH601D-S Is Used
Washdown lines on food machinery
On a rinse-section conveyor where caustic spray reaches every fastener, the SUS304 stud at the valve or cylinder port stands up to repeated wash cycles that would corrode a plain brass stud, while the PBT body keeps the weight down.
Marine and dockside air take-offs
Feeding a Dia 6 line to deck-level actuators or horn/signal gear, the swivelling elbow lets the installer route the tube away from standing water traps regardless of which way the threaded port faces.
Plating-line fixture actuation
Air to lift or clamp cylinders over a plating tank, where acid vapour attacks exposed brass. The 1/8in PT stud with factory-applied sealant threads straight into the cylinder port and orients to clear guards and lift straps.
Is the Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH601D-S the Right Part?
Step either way on the 1/8in ladder and the port stays the same while the bore changes: PH401 drops to Dia 4 tubing for slim pilot lines, PH801 opens to Dia 8 for shorter runs at the same 1/8in port. If your port is 1/4in instead, the PH ladder pairs 1/4in with Dia 6 as PH602 - a combination that is valid on PH even though some other prefixes restrict 1/4in to larger bores. Remember the tube OD must match exactly: a Dia 6 fitting will not hold 1/4in (6.35 mm) imperial tube, and vice versa.
Choose a PH over a fixed PL elbow when the direction of approach is dictated by the machine frame rather than the port - the universal joint absorbs the misalignment. If the fitting must pass through a panel instead, you need the bulkhead shape, not this one.
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 PH601D-S FAQ
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, working temperature -20 to +70 C. This unit joins Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/8in PT male thread. The -S suffix changes only the stud material to SUS304 - AirTAC publishes no different pressure or temperature figures for the stainless variant.
No. On the PH family the -S option makes the male stud SUS304; the elbow body itself remains PBT, exactly as on the standard part, and the dimension tables are identical. AirTAC does not publish a corrosion class, finish figure or certification for this option, so the buyer benefit is the corrosion-resistant thread stud where it seats into the port - not a solid stainless component.
